You’re not one to get swept up in whatever the hot new drama is, you’ve got bigger fish to fry. You might even have a literal fish to fry. You’re a great person to know, someone who loves to kick it and talk about whatever. Fish fries, shrubs, sports, politics, it doesn’t matter. You be you.<br /><br />Eh... not really, no... somewhat, but not really. I am not one to care diddly squat about what the latest trend is, whether that trend be fashion, morals, attitude, music, etc. I will talk about anything... but kick back? Me? Nonono... I argue to much for that.<br /><br />Is there a state for independent-minded arguers who just go their own way? Eh... probably not. Fun quiz, lot inaccurate but that site always is.
