2. (quirky) (420↑, 181↓)
Unconventional, surprising, odd. A word often used by narcissistic [scenester]s when they describe their oh-so-unique selves in their [Livejournal] user info pages in attempts to sound like interesting people. It is a word best used by one person to describe another. Those who apply "quirky" to themselves thereby call into question their very own "quirkiness" by seeming gleefully self-aware (just like everyone else).

4. (Quirky) (154↑, 97↓)
(synonyms - quirky englishman, quirkster, quirkbine harvester) Having a peculiar character. Standing our from the crowd for the sake of it. Eg Always eating burgers upside down. Playing the piano whilst everyone else is socialising. Doing a rubix cube. (3X3? oh no? too mainstream... 4X4, if there was such thing as a 2 X 4 X 3.5, would probably do that) Having a toy dog that you always scratch in the same place. Occasionally sporting the one eyebrow look. Buying stationary 50 at a time. Buying the "Breakfast at tiffanies" sandwich.

Look at that quirky fella over there juggling. Why does that guy have one red sock one blue? He's a quirky little bastard. Why is that guy boiled the water when making his squash? Cool water is too mainstream\! Ahh he's a quirkster is he?
