A state of personality where one is paradoxically considered an asshole, but is still considered endearing and likable.
"It's great to be an asshole, but you don't want to be a total asshole. There's a balance that must be struck. Assholes who are total assholes suffer too much backlash for their nature and are generally considered insufferable by all. Thus, you must learn to follow proper asshole decorum and fall under the Goldilocks Zone of Acceptable Asshold'em. You have accomplished this when people say things about you like 'he's funny, but he's an asshole', or 'I like Dave, but he's kind of an asshole.' That's the Goldilocks zone. You want people to compliment you, or express fondness for you, but then immediately feel the need to point out that you're an asshole."

Get the alcopops mug.Acceptancism, also acceptancialism, acceptism or acceptialism, is the opposite of denialism, acceptancism is a person's choice to accept reality as a way to stop questioning reality, thinking about reality and accept reality as being absolute. Acceptancism is an essentially irrational action that accepts all historical experiences or events without questioning or thinking about that as being absolute, acceptancism also accepts all scientific truths as being absolute and without any questioning about them.
Acceptancism and denialism are two sides of the same coin, both are equally bad and both reject criticism about their positions and so on.
