Taigamma -ThCrowOnThFence- Taigamma -ThCrowOnThFence- Taigamma Being sociable doesn't dictate I must be adventurous. I can be the most friendly b*****d from atop a fiery mountaintop. If you were a atop a fiery mountaintop, wouldn't it then be a reasonable assumption that you are adventurous? >_> PS - "Sociable" and "friendly" are not the same thing. Not if I were born there or dropped off and just stayed there out of faith, laziness, or pure apathy. Anti-PS - Yes they are. Look it up.Were you? xd Anti-anti-PS - They're often used synonymously, but the distinct connotations are inherent in the definitions. "Friendly" is a demeanor. "Sociable" is a nature. No. When I was born, there was a blizzard and I was, as far as I know, in a hospital. 7pm on a Monday. Anti-anti-anti-anti-PS - Friendly is in the definition of Sociable. I just looked it up. Four different dictionaries and all four state Sociable as friendly. Same thing.That's weird. I thought everyone was born atop a fiery mountain. ninja Your appeal to authority is unimpressive. Btw, you added one too many "anti's". : P

Same thing.I'm going to have to side with Liz and say that "friendly" and "sociable" aren't the same thing. : P As someone who has used thesauruses extensively for countless English essays, words may be listed as synonyms but have slightly different connotations. Being wise or clever can both imply being knowledgeable, but the three don't exactly mean the same thing.

I thought one of the requirements for being sociable was being well... at the very least social... ._. but definitions and terminology isn't one of my strongest points.
