Nope, I just know what I like and what I want to do with my life and I'm going to be very happy with that. Really, thats all I need to feel good about myself.

Technically I'm special because I have a higher than average IQ, but in reality, I'm just another of the unwashed masses.

Looking in one?s own perceptive and constructing thousands of unique thoughts and dreams seems pretty special to me.

Mind you, that is THE most DEFEATIST, PESSIMISTIC and ultimately DREAM CRIPPLING way of thinking ever to be seen. Do you need to be special to do something important? No, you just need to do it. And mind you, I WILL become a rock star, and I will kick the silly out of all that jazz.

There needs to be a fourth option. I am special, and everyone else damn well knows it.

if everyone is special, wouldn't that mean were all the same and no one is special???
This right here, is -exactly- what I'm trying to test. And yes, your conclusion is correct in every way
Prove that.
Everyone being special doesn't mean that nobody is, it means that everybody is.
Don't mistake me for not knowing where you're coming from, I know: If everyone is special then everyone is different, therefore there is no benchmark for deciding what is and isn't special yada yada yada. Look beyond that.
Some people are different, they do rise above the rest due to their unique, special qualities. From Leaders to Luminaries, they're all above the benchline.

Dont get what the criteria for special is physicaly im nothing abnormal, mentaly slightly above average intellegence. Personality wise I like to think im unique, I have my secrets that no one will ever know and pains that i will likely never express so in regard I think that makes me different, not that we dont all have secrets/pains but that those are mine and mine alone from birth to death.

I used to believe that I would be a billionaire driving around in expensive cars, with a huge business etc. But that was a long time ago.

Realistically, maybe I will start a business, maybe selling electronics or something.(Maybe a corner store)

EDIT: How could I forget! VIDEO GAMES. Actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea, this store would have the small you need/want. Food, drink, entertainment etc.

I am not a unique and beautiful snowflake. I am part of the all singing, all dancing, crap of the world.

I don't give a shit whether or not I'm special. I say make yourself become something else if you're not satisfied and if you can't do that, then you can take refuge in the notion that very few people with share the exact same perspective. And even if you do share a similar perspective, at least you know you aren't alone.

True story. But here's the thing:

Don't mistake me for not knowing where you're coming from, I know
The funny thing is that you didn't know where I was coming from =P

What I was trying to prove wasn't that no one is special. That's just silly.

What I was trying to prove was that many of us think we are special even though it clearly couldn't be true. Not meant to be offensive; let's use myself as an example. I used to think I was special throughout high school (and sometimes even today, when I am watching certain films). There's a 'feeling' you get. A biochemical reaction in your brain that tells you: I am special. I must be!

'Some' of these people do become luminaries. But most of them? Just look at the poll results. Evolution has played a sick game on us, that's all I'm trying to say =P

Bingo. This is the feeling I get 'sometimes', whether its caused by a certain movie-plot or a cool song on the radio. I can't really explain it, but it's definitely my brain playing tricks of me =]

Meh, Everyone wants to be special but no one REALLY is. We are all the same, we all bleed red and we all want Love, Sex, or Money.

I will admite some people are just smarter, faster, better then others. I would like to beilieve I am one of them, but I wouldn't be shocked if I wasn't. It's not Average if everyone is better.

I want to publish a novel really bad, and I think I"m rather good, so yeah I"m special. If it doesn't work out, I'll just manuscript it and show it to random strangers on the street. That's one way to get it out there.

No, not really.

But then again i've never really wanted to be.

Unless you count silly fantasies like being able to fly.
