Cameron knows when to shut the fuck up and knows how to let shit beI think that was more or less the answer we were after. Kaitlin's was also very good.
Brandon doesn't know boundaries with conversation, how to leave people alone and all that.
and then Cameron was fine being single not having sex and just not whining about that shit
brandon isn't and he bothers his female friends, and ends up trying to be nice and just freaking people out
I just don even get how you think you two are the same.
You two are different ends of the "friendly asshole" and that's why people feel different about you both
And actually you two are not assholes, you just pretend to be
so there
honesty.
Conclusion: It seems that I have a largely positive reputation because I'm available on request and only on request. Last year I would frequently hear about events at Meagan's and then IM her about it so that I didn't arrive uninvited (which would have been perfectly acceptable). I asked Sarah out only after she admitted interest first. I use a lot of innuendos and mention sex frequently, but I'm rarely specifically talking about my sex or your sex. Nobody is bothered by sex in general. I never intentionally flirt unless it's understood that I'm joking.
Brandon's largely negative reputation comes from his habit of prying and being more specific. He tries to be nice. If you're actually a good guy, trying isn't necessary. It just happens. He mentions things in terms of his failing love life or your (generally functioning) one. He flirts with people who plainly want none of it.
It's a simple matter of the difference between available and invasive.
On a side note, it's entirely possible to be both a good guy and an asshole. It's similar to being well-educated and an idiot.

Yay! Well educated idiots! What about moderately educated idiots that pretend to be smarter than they are? I think I pull that off well.
I'm too late for the Brandon poll it seems. I would just base it on most of my IM conversations.
With Mr. Hodge it was fairly general conversation. One of us would initiate with something that mutually interests us, or might have to potential to.
Mr. Black tended to initiate conversation with things I didn't want to hear. Complaints about something I don't care about and have no urge to hear about. Such as previously mentioned topics. He has gotten much better with this though.
Keep in mind that I don't talk to either as much as many of you. Especially Mr. Black.
It's also fun to note all 3 of us are very opinionated and supremely stubborn. Then one I can have a fluid conversation with and the other usually ended up in an endless series of annoying "point/counterpoint" until one or both of us just stop responding.
