Oh, thought catalogue, sometimes you amuse me so with how you put things (well, some of them, anyway) inside my head into lists... Like this one.

And here they are, with colour commentary.

1. You have a lot of opinions about a lot of things, and you just can’t keep them to yourself. 
   -- There's being a complete arsehole and then there's being diplomatically blunt. One makes you less of a human being, the other makes you heard. And everyone is entitled to their opinion.
2. You mean what you say and say what you mean – none of that Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus nonsense. 
   -- Your word is how you represent yourself. Words are powerful things. If you can't stick to your word then you don't have much of an integrity to begin with.
3. You never back-down from an argument. You’re not always starting them but you sure as hell finish them when necessary. 
   -- Key words: When Necessary. Often, it's to know when you're wrong and to apologise. If the other person is gearing in for a fight of mammoth proportions, why give it to them. 
4. You have really high standards for the people you choose to be around and you’re not afraid to leave behind those who cannot meet it. 
   -- Yeeeeehp, that's happened more than once.
5. You’ve got even higher standards for any person who wants to be with you, romantically. 
   -- Yeeeeeeeehp, that's DEFINITELY happened waaaaay more than too many times.
6. You’d much rather fail at doing things your way than succeed while being a people-pleaser. 
   -- I have failed many times doing it my way that it's worth taking the time to know that my way or the highway is not that great a credo. You can improve the system only when you know it inside out.
7. You do not tolerate drama but you also will stand up for yourself if the situation calls for it. 
   -- *nods*
8. You love being in charge, taking control, and anything and everything that makes you feel powerful. 
   -- As seen from today's events, that is highly evident.
9. You’re called high maintenance for knowing what you like (and what you like happens to be of finer tastes.) 
   -- Pshaaaaaaaaaaaa I'm not H.M., okay, maybe a little bit.
10. Coco Chanel, Maya Angelou, and Queen Victoria are your spirit animals. 
    -- Margaret Thatcher, actually. Queen Vic's alright too.
11. You’ve always thought aspiring to be “like a man” is something people who lack ambition do. 
    -- I have nothing to say to this. Like A man is different from THE man.
12. You are not afraid to ask your boss for a raise because you want to be paid what you deserve. 
    -- *nods*
13. When you want something, you go for it, unapologetically. 
    -- Unless there's vested interest then the status quo is kept until timing is appropriate.
14. You are not afraid to “be alone” because that is 1000 times better than getting less than what you deserve. 
    -- Yup. Refer to #5
15. In a relationship, you ask for what you need and you are willing to compromise some things, but not everything. 
    -- Compromise and understanding, amongst other things, is key to a strong relationship. That and the fact that you've made that choice to be in one, that's the bed you made. Sleep in it.
16. You make disloyal people regret their words and/or actions. 
    -- Or just leave them. I hold loyalty in very high regard, in fact, it shares the podium with honesty.
17. But you never take revenge, because you know the best revenge is success. 
    -- Cold, slow burns work way better than quick hot ones.
18. You also always forgive your enemies but like every sensible person, “you never forget their names.” 
    -- Or what they did. As Sun Tzu said, 'Know thy enemy,'
19. You don’t apologize for crying or not crying. 
    -- I DO WHAT I WANT! although, the last time I actually cried was... a while back.
20. You relish your strengths and accept your weaknesses and consider self-growth an everyday endeavor. 
    -- Oprah said you gotta keep yourself full before you can help anyone else.
21. You intimidate people with your confidence – not just men or women – people in general. 
    -- I don't know if this is true, I'd like to think I'm a cute fluffy friendly bunny.
22. You are allergic to people’s bullshit and you do not hesitate to inform them of that. 
    -- I'm allergic to drama...
23. You like to think of yourself as “not a lover or a fighter” but someone who will indeed, “fight for what and whom they love.” 
    -- Fighter. With a hero complex. :|
24. You’re not afraid of being called difficult because you know it’s just a word society uses for women who aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo. 
    -- Call me Miss Bossypants. That's right, PANTS.
25. And you are always slightly overdressed for everything. 
    -- Actually, this one is wrong. I dress comfortably. Ain't nobody I really want to impress...

Sekian.
