Integrity Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) first-interaction impressions are completely unreliable i'd say that tops half of my first impressions hold EDIT: case in point, my first impression of noted serenes forest dot net poster nightmarre Edited September 2, 2014 by Integrity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peener weener Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I used to have almost only negative first impressions and now i have almost only positive first impressions I say it works out for the best this way, accuracy notwithstanding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I get lots of negative impressions from people but I try and shrug them off, because I think I'm just being bitter. I think I'm mostly off the mark in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Wright Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 generally, first impressions are not reliable. i don't trust anyone to accurately infer the way someone is based off of an initial meeting. and again, i mean this generally. one may of course come across people who are, for whatever reason, very easy to read.

Lance Masayoshi Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I usually see someone as either a bad person or good person ect, depending on how they act But when I get to know some people, they actually are good people(well most of them.)

Phoenix Wright Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 that's true. i wasn't really thinking of professionals (though i should have been), just the average joe. i'd probably trust specialists in human behavior, psychology, and the like in that case haha.

Makaze Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Inaccurate on quiet people. Moderately accurate on talkative people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadFighter Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Accurate when not tired. So like 40% of the time. Maybe less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peener weener Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 there's still no better first impression than imo to have any semblance of an idea about what the fuck you're talking about, i googled it. for reference, he was talking about putin. this is what he said about the russian man-cannon: "I found him to be very straight forward and trustworthy and we had a very good dialogue. He's a man deeply committed to his country and the best interests of his country and I appreciate very much the frank dialogue and that's the beginning of a very constructive relationship."

eclipse Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I can tell two categories: RUN, CLIPSEY, RUN! and Okay. I'm learning how to make better judgments in the latter one (as it's a giant lump of People Who Don't Creep Me Out At First Sight). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specta Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) everything everything but I like listening to Russian most, if I had to pick I like speaking English most because I don't have to think too hard to get RESULTS, though I really do love the sense of accomplishment when I manage to properly communicate with someone, however basically, in a language I'm trying to learn.

Thor Odinson Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) I prefer speaking Chinese to English overall but it depends on the subject matter; I would not want to talk about professional stuff in Chinese for example because most of my formal education is american and if I knew Italian better I'd like to speak it more than English too but right now I only know how to speak simple sentences I do prefer dio mio to oh my god though I like listening to Italian and Latin and Icelandic Edited September 4, 2014 by Thor Odinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
