My philosophy is that you are either weird or you’re boring.
Many years ago when I still lived in Fuji, I taught private English lessons at a dog cafe of all places. The woman who coordinated the lessons made dog outfits. When I told her “You’re either weird or boring,” She said “I’m not weird!” I replied, “Look, you make superhero outfits for pet dogs. That’s weird.” I’ve never understood why people would go out of their way to humiliate their pets by making them wear dumb clothing and such, but that was a side business for her.
I tend to gravitate towards eccentric people. Even those I disagree with, I can appreciate their unique point of view. People who do their own thing. People who look at things differently. It’s refreshing. That way I know they are not NPCs.
