Do you give up often? I never give up because I'm really tough and trout.
I was about to say no but then I remembered that I ragequit games all the time (and in fact I quit a game of SMAC about two minutes ago because I didn't like how it was going.)
I don't quit, I take breaks. Like my finger.
:(
I will keep trying until i've attempted every avenue of approach without success. I might then try to ask for assistance, or just find something better or more important to do.
If it's for someone else then no, but if it's something I'm doing for me, then yes. All the time. Even though I don't mean to. Especially if I'm making something. I get frustrated that it's not coming out perfectly, get frustrated and then give up
i'm pretty stubborn.
Eh, I'm very much a "do what I feel like doing" kind of guy. I don't really give up so much as I find something else I would rather do, and move on to that. I usually have the intention of picking up on whatever it was I was moving on from on another day... but it often doesn't happen. I guess you could call that giving up, but it doesn't have that kind of feeling to me.
I'm sure that there are some things I give up on, though. Just nothing springs to mind.
paraphrased out of my wall (where it was promptly spammed with pg is fat rhetoric: )
are you dead yet? get back up!
I never quit! Never say die! Keep going till the bitter end!
...or at least until I come to a difficult bit. Then I just give up...
I give up if mid-way I realize that it is NOT WORTH IT.
I am far too competitive. If I quit, then I lose. Losing is unacceptable. Must win, everything. Must win breakfast. Must win showering. Must win everything.
Must win EoFF.
Losing is just not an option. Survival of the fittest dammit.
I never quit... though I may fail to attempt.
I do what I want, when I want. Usually. You know why? Because Chuck Lorre said so.

There is a certain point where insanity becomes attractive. I'm not talking about becoming charmingly eccentric, I've got that covered nine ways to Sunday. I'm talking about purposely emigrating to the land of lunacy. That special psychological zip code where the Ancient Laws of "Behave Yourself" no longer apply. My reasoning is simple. It takes a great deal of effort to sustain a conservative, trustworthy persona. Surrendering that effort would involve, from a Freudian perspective, a conscious dismantling of the super ego - that part of the psyche entrusted with enforcing parental and socially approved actions. And therein lies the allure of going full frontal wackadoodle. The constant energyrequired to pass as normal would suddenly be available for doing and saying whatever pleases me in the moment. Imagine it: the id and libido completely unbound by any and all moral or cultural restrictions.
Was that on one of the vanity cards?

I never quit. I wanna be the very best. Like no-one ever was.
Late in life, Winston Churchill was asked to give a speech to new students at a university. He got up and spoke just 5 words they were:
After that he sat down, speech done.Quote:
Never, never, never give up
It's a speech that I strive to live by. In everything I do if I feel like giving up I remember this and even if it seems impossible I will try it again.
I have a very little amount of dedication and I'll drop most things fairly quickly if it's not going the way I want. I'm more of an instant gratification kind of person.
It's true. I'm surprised he found the effort to finish that post.
It's probably why he touches himself so often.
I really can't even be bothered to finish th
I can stubbornly insist on doing something, but usually I choose the path of least resistance.

I wouldn't know the answer to that because I attempt very few things. I suppose I gave up on life altogether.
