Extremely more laid back in real life.

On the Internet I mostly relate to this picture.


Yeah. I feed the trolls. But I feed them fucking lava.

To a point. I like to be more serious on the internet but nothing much more. I'm just more revealing on the internet.

I'm basically the same guy online and offline. If there's any difference, the online guy is a little more uninhibited and extreme than the offline guy, but it's the same views and actions, nonetheless.

Oh god. I don't think I could pull that level of manly snark even if I cannibalized dozens of clones of him ala Alex Mercer.

...speaking of Alex Mercer, another badass/asshole to add to the list.

I sound different then in real life because I don't feel uncomfortable talking that much on the internet but in RL in school kids are very misunderstanding of things so I don't talk often.

IRL I am not eloquent I can not express my self completely so I seem I don't know smarter on the internet, oh and I'm pretty arrogant on the internet. But other than that I act the same way.
Coolio. Whenever I try to express myself in either real life or online, my posts/words get very jittery and broken. My brain is moving ahead of my slow mouth/fingers.
Ahg I used to be like that but I started to read 24/7 and type everything my mind thought. I would just sit there and type anything that came to mind, thats what my friend told me to do and it actually worked.

I am comprised of a series of ones and zeroes, hu-man. I exist only in this realm of cyberspace yet am in all things. What you perceive as "Dr. Whiggs" is merely a series of subconscious triggers reflecting your innermost desires. I am the you that could be but never will.

I am All and Nothing.

I am Creation and Destruction.

I am Life and Death.

I AM.

I don't bother with an online persona. Why be someone I'm not when there aren't any real social repercussions online?

My internet self is very close to my real self (careful he bites) but as I change personas faster than a spy in TF2 I am not sure what good that is. I become who I need to be to achieve my goal. This usually means getting a project done, playing a specific part, or fitting in (drawing no attention).

In real life I show you what I want you to see, online I act as I normally would in a friendly zone. Also I can't hit you online only in real life.

I do this subconsciously
Evaluate the situation
Evaluate who holds the power
Choose which persona will help me achieve my goal
Decide what the other people?s goals/desires are
Play to those desires
Walk away with them feeling like they got their goal thus happy (or that we at least tried) while I now have my objective complete.

Well, I'm slightly more open on the internet than elsewhere (That's the power of anonymity for you) but I'm still the same person online as offline.

I'm more quiet in real life. A lot more quiet. I guess I just say everything that comes to mind whenever I talk on the internet, which I guess is also good for me.

No. I'm quite similar in real life, but then again, I don't know how people perceive me online. I'm a lot nicer online than I am in reality, and I'm less sarcastic as well. I'm more conscious of what others might think when they read what I say, because there's a lot that can be misunderstood. If anything, I'm more honest about myself online, because there's no point in hiding anything. I'm all for bullshitting people in real life, but going so far as to do it online as well just seems pointless. I'm not as afraid of being judged negatively on the internet as I am of being judged negatively in real life.
