... But you're not wrong
It's always worthwhile to be self-aware and to be conscious of the parts of your personality that others might be annoyed by or take offense to. I'm not going to change that part of my personality just to please others, but I don't think it's annoying to acknowledge that others might not appreciate that part of who I am.
But hey, you do you. If being your authentic self means not caring about how your words affect the feelings of others, then that's just who you are, I guess.

I've got a van, van, van...
I'm hot for teacher
I loved the setting for this game, if not the game itself.
Plus, doesn't anyone else remember Tailspin? I swear this was a real show and not an elaborate fever dream from my childhood.
Get out of ~~Malibu~~ London, deadbeat!
Me too. I was really wondering what sort of interview this was.
