Default Internet tough guys... - 07-28-2004, 12:46 PM

I was just wondering, how many people here are like their internet personas in real life? Because of the wonderful anonimity of the international network, most people take on this whole new persona on the internet, they start fights, they talk tough, they use language they would never use in real life. So, who is like their interweb self?
I, for example, am exactly like I am here in real life. The over the top language, the vague and not-so-vague death threats, pretty much how I act here is how I act outside. Oh... and I also pause a... lot. Usually for either comic... effect... or because I... forget what I was going to say. Just like here.

I'm different in real life. I'm not as retarded as I am on here. In fact, I'm quite a mature and responsible chap. eek:

im exactly the same in real life, i speak my mind and my opinion no matter what, thats probably gonna change once i get to the citadel though ill only be saying "yes sir" and "no sir"

edit: actually im probably more intellectual on here than in real life, im more open about reading and get into intelectual arguments which i almost never did at school or around my friends...high school kids, especially girls are so fucking imature.

Like with me, Eames, it will probably only change in the face of a superior, for me an Army Drill Sergeant, for you any of your instructors... but outside I know I'm still going to be an outspoken jackass.

No, in real life I would prolly get the sh& kicked outta me for saying some stuff & acting like an idiot/causing chaos on msn gaming zone.

But part of me is similar, I play jokes on my friends & take the piss out of people just like I do on the net. I also take part in debates &tc try to act all smart when addressing superiors & colleages in real life.

I supppse we all act in different ways to match each different social event.

I'm different, but not too different. I wouldn't blatently be an ass hole to somebody I just met and tell them to leave.
