I'm aware that it's 100% possible to be happy and normal, but this is a theoretical question.
It's coming from a thread I saw by Eye a while ago, about if 12 steps will turn him into a quack.

I'm assuming you mean sane by crazy, as in "quirky, zany, perhaps a bit eccentric."

I'm going for being nuts. Being normal is overrated.

Totally nuts? Or just your own rules - whatever that happens to be?

I've been called crazy, as a compliment. A bit of my own rules, though I do try to fit in, because i realize it's important, for various reasons.

how would you define "totally nuts?" As in, psychotic?

Well not necessarily, although that definitely does qualify. I mean someone who is crazy enough that people actually think he's not playing with a full deck

Ah...hm. Not sure. I guess I'm different, but the people that matter all consider it different in a good way.

And realize, of course, that by being "different" in the way that all of us on GYE want to be, we're kinda nuts already, and everyone else in the world thinks we're not playing with a full deck.
