I'm sure I've been called antisocial plenty through my life. Hey, I don't like masks either.

There were plenty of people that thought I was nuts as a kid. I just thank my parents for not buying into it all and filling me full of drugs to make me conform like is done to so many other kids. I think partly I was saved by the fact I tended to not be openly disruptive (i.e. disrupting the class) so I was able to fly under the radar.

Looking back as I got older, gained life experience, did some traveling, etc., I'm not so sure I ever had any disorders and it was just all crap made up by people who wanted to "fix" me. I just don't do things only for the sake of social conformity or scoring social points. Social confirmation means nothing to me. There's loads of social things I do though, but because they are enjoyable experiences. Not because I win some social credit score.

I think back to some of my traveling and favorite moments come from unexpected fun social interaction for example. Things that aren't forced. There's loads of examples on the flip-side though--I don't drink much, I get no positive outcome from it and it makes no sense to me. Social activity is heavily geared around alcohol consumption though, so don't do it and you're a weird antisocial. Dating is effing stupid too, and it's not because I hate women or whatever, it's because of what it's become. Dating feels like prostitution to me a lot of times, buy all their shit, they offer their pussy. Get tired of me, goodbye and hope we never got married or I'll take half your shit. I just got sick of it all, so I don't bother, and of course that makes me a weird antisocial.

So yeah, I guess if not wanting to wear a piece of cloth on my face for the sake of others acceptance is antisocial, count me in.
