Pushy trying to make others fan just because you are a fan?
Pushy about showing things because you find it funny?
I remember watching a comdian wth two other people who can't stand him. But then they laughed about one thing I found hilarious. I think I rewinded twice just to get them to laugh again.
These days I kind of pathetically wish I knew more people to watch Kick Ass with me.
I'm definately pushy, are you?

Dude, I got a posse of people who went and saw Kick Ass with me. If you need a Kick Ass buddy, I'll hop a flight just so I can help someone can enjoy that film as much as possible.
I'm pushy though about music. But only music I think people would like. Then I get pissed when they aren't wild about my suggestions.

I used to be really pushy about things like that, but now I just let it slide. I used to practically beg people to go to movies with me, because if there's one thing I know it's movies. Well, I know a lot of things, but I seem to have a sense on which movies are the ones you absolutely, positively have to see on a big screen. But I tell people and they're like, "Oh, that doesn't look good." or "Are you sure?" or other questions.
And then they'll wait until it comes out on video and they rent it. And they always seem to tell me, "You know, I shoud've seen that on the big screen." I just smirk and shake my head at them.

No, not at all. I'm not going to waste my time trying to convince someone to like something. I've tried in the past and it got me nowhere so I won't even bother. I may talk about something I like and praise it to no end, but I still won't be all that pushy about it. I respect people's feelings (usually) and I leave it at that.

I have been known to be about certain things. Other things I know I either don't need to be pushy about, or there's no point in me trying.

I'm a bit pushy about Nine Inch Nails and Opeth. If people say they don't like them I get really defensive and try to convince people that they need to change their musical outlook. I however have no problem in telling others that their musical tastes suck.
Yes, it's a sickness. I need help!

I kinda do, kinda don't.
I don't really tend to force my interests upon other people because they're pretty weird and I know it's not for everyone. On the other hand, I get really irritated when people just settle with what they're given and don't even bother to take the time and find better stuff.

In my younger days, I was. Especially regarding the indie music/film scene. Ah, the early 2000's.
Now, the only thing I try to push on people are books. But mainly when people claim they "don't have time to read". Yes, you do! Turn off Cake Wars and read some Italo Calvino!
