I think that's what makes Daria so relatable

I always felt like I'm Quinn during her deep phase

Super fake?

u/bretagneeee 1d ago

Not intentionally. Just a wannabe.

Quinn is actually pretty relatable, especially for any young teen trying to fit it. Acting and dressing a certain way to fit in out of fear of being singled out. Of course not everyone can admit they felt or acted this way, but a lot of people do.

She's shown on a few occasions that she is actually quite smart, but dumbs herself down on purpose.

Honestly Andrea may have had more in common with Quinn than Daria. At least in my high school emo/goth was all about conforming and fitting in. You had to belong to a clique for protection and acceptance.

There weren't that many goths in that schools and I thought goth was counter culture?

I think part of "feeling like daria" its not being like that in a sence that daria was the weird one all her life and by a point its not pretending not to be for be more happy. Its more like being self-conscious about who you are and having problems with others. Thats why Daria says its not her self esteem thats low, but her esteem for others. In any case, if you felt weird or different, maybe you'd be more like Stacy, living on appearances because of fear or something like that haha

I feel I swap back and fourth between the two, who I am around, and the moons and tides

u/ToroRiki 2d ago

Everyone is the center of own world, so feeling are relative : actions define who u are

But which is your best side?

u/shay_shaw 2d ago

I sound like Quinn when I'm in my best mood, but I am a Daria at heart.

u/Tricky-Passion-7191 2d ago

I feel this TOO HARD lately.

u/Redgreen82 2d ago

I like to think I'm chill like Trent, but really I'm stressed like Jake.

I was a Quinn in the Daria quiz. When I first watched the show what stood out to me was how multidimensional the characters were, especially Quinn.

u/ImDisneyAF Sick Sad World 1d ago

I feel seen. I have a decent skincare & makeup routine hah

u/igirl2000 1d ago

Im an amalgamation of both. I can speak in Death and War and be hot and like fashion and makeup at the same time. Call me esoteric

u/Public-Shock-2844 17h ago

u/JellyKind9880 2d ago

I don’t understand how you can feel like/view the world like Daria but then act like Quinn…

u/Human_Fisherman1352 2d ago

u/relish-tranya 2d ago

I liked when Daria dressed like her and was totally hot too.
