We seem to live in this skewed up world where the more money u have the more u are somehow worth as a person and it's really fucked up.

I had a friend who was a "good" person and was as plane and vanilla as one can get. He had no passion for anything in return. He's just a good little tool to be exploited. I could never follow a man like that or work with someone accordingly. It reeks apathy and weakness.

I don't think that being a well-intended person necessarily means you have some sort of hidden agenda. But yeah, I understand what you're saying

I dunno. I try to be a good person and try to live the Golden Rule. The only law I break these days is my occasional weed jags. I'm hardly immature (or at least I think I'm not). Maybe I am a goody two-shoes, but I sure sleep well at night.

just like everything else in the world, this isn't black and white. its a grey splatter fuck.
i have met more than one kind of 'goody two-shoes'
There is the guy who is just ignorant of everything, he believes most things are 'too risky/dangerous' for him
There is the guy who is a goody two shoes because he is afraid. He thinks all the laws are just and are justified because of how bad stuff is.
There is the guy who has done it all and realized it takes you no where thats good. So he becomes a goody two shoes of sorts, because he knows how bad it can get, because he abused the fuck out of everything

I'm not just throwing labels at people. I'm trying to establish an archetypal person - somebody who is essentially a false good person, and distinguish them from somebody who is truly good.
Rubbing in the fact that you are very compliant with the rules and/or another person is not compliant with them does not make you a good person.
Doing so is condescending and narcissistic.

i believe in punishment and not by the law if you know what im trying to say
so does that make me a a bad person?
i know im a good person i know whats wrong and whats right.
i have examined bad, devil, just truly evil people trying to get my head around why there how they are i got alot of answers what is just really shocking
dont ask me why or how i know this.
but its just best to not focus on bad evil things and dont let it bother you we should not feel any harm of them or be worried or scared
we are much stronger than them

I can tell that my main flaw in creating this thread was failing to define what a goody two-shoes is. Most of you equate it with being a "good person" which is not at all the case.
You have to remember that morality is not black and white like many think it is - it is infinitely complex, always evolving, and people have been trying to define and understand it since almost the beginning of civilization.
However, my main distinction between goody two-shoes and good people is that goody-two shoes are condescending, strict rule-followers, and believe that they are better than you simply because they're following the rules and you're not. And they completely lack humility (which is a vital trait you'd normally expect in a "good person"). I guess if you're the type of person who thinks the consensus rules (whichever rules those may be) always represent what is morally right, then you may fail to see any difference between the goody two-shoes and the good person. I explained it more in a previous post I think. But I've gotten what I needed from this thread.

Ah, gotcha. Well, in those terms I'm hardly a strict rule follower, although I do try to at least be a good person.

this thread exemplifies stupid.
Quote:
Envix said: people-pleasers who behave overly-kind out of insecurity are immature.
if you're genuinely a nice person who doesn't need to do nice things to feel secure, that's maturity
some people are constantly afraid that others perceive them negatively, and therefore overcompensate by acting overly nice. these people aren't yet secure enough in their individuality which is why they come across as awkward or as a pussy
sorry but you don't have a point here.
people who act overly-kind are people whom are kind, overtly. they are not making up for anything but people's insecurity in just being nice. 
so you have to act a little like a dick, is what you're saying envix, in order to not appear or "come across" as a "pussy or awkward", and in order to assert yourself as "secure in your individuality", and then you're "real" nice?
dude... what a load of crap.

They teach people not to trust each other and they break up relationships.
Yes, I would say so, maybe even the definition of immaturity once you know one in person.
I honestly have wanted to punch this guy I worked with for being annoying, he pissed off all the black people too. Not that I didn't like him as a human being, but it was like working with a miniature dickhead.

Agreed.
I am sensitive to the term as I was called a goody two-shoes simply for being interested in my classes and got along well with my teachers.
Funny how I never got good grades
