I was lead guitarist and vocalist in bands. And I love hamming it up at karaoke parties. It's really gratifying when people love my music.

In conversations, I make jokes, wise cracks, and references to famous quotes.

But, overall, I'd rather be entertained by top notch entertainers. I've been to hundreds of concerts and seen the best bands and musicians. I've gone to clubs with really fun live entertainment like Polynesian or Russian dancers. I like watching good movies. And I love it when my female partner wears sexy clothes, dances, poses, strip teases, and does things to me.

I would say being the entertainer. Bringing some joy and escape to an audience... even its for only a short time can be a very powerful experience.

I find joy and fulfillment in both entertaining and being entertained. As someone who loves sharing my art and experiences, being an entertainer allows me to express creativity and connect with others. On the other hand, being entertained gives me a chance to relax, appreciate others' talents, and find inspiration for my work. It's a beautiful cycle of inspiration and enjoyment. 😊🎨

I'm usually the goof in my circle of friends. The easy going, fun one that always entertains others. And out of my friend group, I'm the boring dull one.

I like both being the entertainer and being entertained, but if I had to choose one, it would be the entertainer, because I'd be giving value to others lives.

I’ve been a “sad clown” for a long time in my life


Making everyone else laugh except myself


Recently I’ve been trying to fix that


It’s a work in process but I’m improving

You're asking little Mz. Vanity herself THAT question?

I can be both, I entertain with my mind and presence, not performance.

But if someone wants to entertain me, they better bring more than jokes, bring depth, wit, and energy that matches mine.

I have an entertainer in me, but she doesn't always want to make an appearance apart from a select group of friends.

[FreyaRed]

I can entertain but I don't like doing it for nothing. Otherwise I prefer to be entertained.

[Shiprex]

Bit of both depending on the company. It's tiring to be the entertainer

[mysteriousNicholas]

@thegreenyogi it's why I sit in front of a tv

[Massageman]

If it's keyboards, I can hold my own. If it's old classic movies, I'll watch those. So, it's a draw.

Teaching I liked to be the sage on the stage but regular life I like the guide on the side...

[HighSchoolCustodian]

Being entertained cause if people watch me they watch me playing video games.

[Rosemaiden]

I lean more on the side of being entertained..

[Xawyx-2]

I like both, depends on the situation.

[Cidknee]
