Hmmn, I'm not sure it's really that aspect that unites the "freaks" ... actually I don't even consider myself a "freak" that term is a bit... mutilated and used commonly as a hurtful name. I don't consider myself any better or any worse than the average person- although everyone to some extent developes subconciously a self-image of narcissism...

What we all have in common is that we're all individuals.
THAT WAS SO CHEESEY IT HURT
Anyway. The things all we weirdos have in common is the fact that we, through some mechanism in our minds, have decided that we're not normal. That decision, to be what we are not and not something false, unites us on one level.
But that's about as much as I can think of. We're tied by difference.
Going to see OOC thread now. But all-in-all everyone is so superbly the same it is sickening, and nobody, not you, not myself, not President Bush, is THAT different than the other.
The only difference I see with individuality are the seperate aspect roles we each fit into. Nobody is unique, yet everyone is different. There has been an earlier version of you in the world and there will be a later version- hell, there may even be someone mirror-image to you living next door. There are of course the artists, then there are the rebels, the goody-goods, the blah blah blah's. I guess I'm feeling very cynical today because I normally wouldn't be pondering things such as this and my view would be completely different
I really don't even know why I'm typing something this long to such a small post, but I feel like typing and I'm sorry if I come off as a bit annoying.
I just think that as a whole, human beings are a VERY unique species... unique from what? We know no other intelligent species capable of what we are... yet, so I guess we trully ARE 100% unique. But, as individuals, we're so predictable and boring. Nothing we say, nothing we do, nothing we ARE is new. It's already been and it shall be again. Jesus H Christ, it sounds like I'm attempting to drive someone to suicide. I'm not trying that, I'm just thinking outloud... err, on my keyboard.
Anyway, the only lasting impression someone can leave on this world is that of thoughts and ideas. Painters accomplish this by creating visual worlds and physical miracles, forever imprinted on the canvas of life; writers [as my self] do this by spawning ideas and stories from their very own bodies, molding them into delicate tales that millions of people will read, and millions of minds, even if only slightly, will be changed. I wish someday to do this, then I'll feel unique.
WTF?!?!?! Lmfao!!! I HAVE to up my doses of caffein... ^_^
Fin!
