In some contexts, I would consider being called "sane" an insult - particularly my artistic endeavors. I want to push the envelope there, and that as much as possible without having people screaming and dashing for the exits. Play time is insane time. Twisting things to get people to look at them anew is one of the great joys in my life - especially with my kids.

In other contexts, I pride myself on being quite sane, in business and finances particularly.

As has been mentioned several times, it goes back to societal norms. This certainly makes sense with me - in business and financial life, I want to cooperate with society as much as possible in order to be successful in that context. In all else, I insist on my freedom - which includes freedom from adhering to the norms that would classify me as "sane".
