I've seen that Kurt Cobain "I'd rather be hated for what I am, than loved for what I'm not" quote on a lot of profiles, but this was more common in the Myspace days when I was a teenager.

I clearly don't spend enough time on Facebook. I've really been missing out on all these trite sayings.

This is the best response ever to the quote that I'm sure you're alluding to:
