you know, now that we are all here.
I've always wondered what goes on behind the screen of others.
most of us think we know the tone or mood of whoever we argue with, talk to or simply troll but we never truly know if they really are mad or not. words in text can be very shady and mysterious. often more than not do we see that most people grow a pair when hidden behind a screen.
and its made me wonder if its a subconscious thing that shows how we really are as a society and how the internet kind of makes it easier for some people who are usually quiet and awkward have a say.
I've noticed some of the louder users are some of the shyest IRL. which brings the question whether you truly are different irl personality wise even though you may say that you'd say the same IRL. you cannot hold the thought that maybe subconsciously the whole concept still makes you feel more esteemed.
maybe hiding behind it, allows you to show who you really are when not limited.

14 RepliesDo NOT provoke me to think about sonder in this place. It will leave me weakened by such level. Ya'll need to start doing shit before you're too old and without opportunity. Schools have you young adults burning up the most critical years of your life in institutionalized domestication. Go do what feels like living before you're chained to the dollar by your lost time. I can't believe how many men, like myself, were led by such a subtle and gentle pull directly into the meatgrinder of daily life. You won't know what you're going to make a living doing, but you must start [i]doing[/i]. Learn to code. Chop down a tree. Figure out how to install irrigation into your lawn. Paint pictures of trees being irrigated. Sew a sock and if it's shitty use it as a hand puppet. Learn how to drive a tractor. Do yoga and breathing exercises. Play video games for the social interaction, not the babysitter. Go on a run. Go on another run. Eat fresh vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Take apart an old microwave and see how it works. GET INVOLVED WITH SHIT. Your life will pass you by, second by second, and one day you'll realize you don't have time to fck off anymore, Uncle Sam will need his dollar, but right now many of you don't have to worry about that, and that's your opportunity. The greatest currency of man is his time. Don't spend yours jerking off liking instagram photos of chicks you'll never even talk to. Go do something and then never stop doing things.

It probably wouldn't go well if I tried to call out stupid people face-to-face. Would be a quick way to get punched.

I'm pretty quiet IRL.

2 RepliesI am more aggressive irl. I try to stay happy, funny & positive, but I do that better online. Mainly though, I just try to be a thoughtful & caring father. I let a lot of shit slide because it is the net & it is in text form, so you lose a lot of the facial cues that let you know a persons mood.

1 ReplyI'm relatively outgoing irl too,I lie about a bunch of shit here though, people say way to much personal crap here

I'm pretty much the same. I argue a lot. I have rational conversations that are often either political or scientific with friends. I don't give a -blam!- about how much I cuss.

I'm pretty much the same. I usually don't comment, and I usually don't talk. I like people watching.

Thus it will be my goal that people know what to expect when it comes to me! or sorta know. Anyways [spoiler]*Smoke bomb* POOF![/spoiler]

8 RepliesMost people here are far more insecure and reserved than their posts entail. Its obvious through the demographic considered, their reactions to various things, their music tastes, and attitudes towards pop-culture among other things. You know, people often regard me as a narcissist or as egocentric around here. But isn't that exactly how self-confidence is always perceived by those who lack it? I'd like to believe what I project online is no different from actuality. I'm sure anyone around here who knows me well enough would agree too. That excludes the large majority of people, and includes mostly just the folks in Yolk. Which none of you nerds will ever get in to, by the way.

I would say that I am pretty similar between online and IRL. Online, I often feel as if my posts are misinterpreted, sometimes as being a little on the hostile or condescending side. I feel bad when I let this happen. It's a symptom of having a sarcastic sense of humor, and a group of friends that joke around with me in a absurd kinda way where we say things ironically or say things that we know just aren't true to how we feel, but it sounds funny. This absolutely never translates well through a text format, so when IRL my tone of voice and facial expression would indicate that what I'm saying is supposed to be good natured teasing or self deprecating, it can instead cone across as harsh or even insulting. It's something I try to keep in mind but often forget. So sometimes in trying to be careful about what I say and to get my message across respectfully and clearly, I end up making posts, like this one, that are longer than they need to be.

Meh. I would say I'm more or less the same. Not that anybody would know since I don't post or say anything on here anymore.

1 ReplyI'm usually half drunk when I'm on here anymore.

You are all figments of my imagination.

True as shit. In real life I keep my mouth shit 90% of the time. The other 10% is to fake laugh at a bad joke or nod yes/no and hope it was the correct gesture.
