How to use "Offbeat" in context?
Heartfelt appreciation cannot be overstated when it comes to loyal, offbeat friends. From the moment you meet them, you know that they don't easily fit into a mold.
And that's part of what makes them so great. They don't care about the popular things. They wouldn't know what to do with themselves if they didn't push boundaries.
They are unique. And that is a good thing.
