I'm actually a computer generated response designed to string together polysyllabic words based on a mathematical logarithim of forum thread postings.
By day, that is.
By night I'm the boy next door.0 -
I say the same things as I would "in real life" but some of the things I say sometimes get lost in translation :grumble:0
-
I'm pretty much the same, although I don't use the words, slutty, *kitten*, trampsy, hooker or skank nearly as much in real life :laugh:
Sugar, I'm disappointed in you!! I use those words frequently.... along with many others
But to answer the original question, I'm pretty much the same with the exception of asking random strangers to be my friends..... I'm a little quiet and reserved at first but once I get to know you and feel comfy around you then you can't shut me up! Believe me, my friends have tried0 -
I have a spider collection.
can you make webs? :bigsmile:
I'm not an actual spider silly - of course I can't make webs0 -

I m exactly the same in real life as I am in here,pour a few drinks down my throat and it gets worse. But im totally awesome so its ok.0
-
Same-same. Maybe a little *more* me irl, because I can convey tone. I have to worry more about being misunderstood here. I'm somewhat standoffish at first irl, but otherwise the same.0
-
IRL I have to warm up to people. But give me a bit of time and I'll talk about inappropriate things and laugh at my own jokes; pretty much like I do online.0
-
IRL I'm a former senator from Pennsylvania with even more ambitious political aspirations. Things have been going pretty well, though sometimes I misread things like historical speeches and it makes me barf, which is embarrassing.
I just play a strikingly handsome law student on the internet for fun.0 -
Im more weird and cute in person. Kind of loud and inappropriate as well. Im pretty dull on the phone... I have no idea how people perceive me on the internet. They probably think I am a freak! Haha0
-
I'm the same online and in reality...what you read & what you see is what you get!0
-
I'm the same in real life if I'm comfortable with the people I'm around. If I am with an unfamiliar person or group that doesn't know me I am shy and reserved. When we're familiar with each other I'm absolutely coo-coo-craaaaaaazy!0
-
i'm just a tad more flirtatious online, but other than that, you're looking at the real mccoy. you're just missing the snort laughs
Love her^^
And I'm exactly the same as I am online... sarcastic, obnoxious, crass, offensive, derogatory, kind of creepy..... Yep.. Sounds about right. You're welcome, world. And I quote Star Wars in real life too..... :smokin:
Edited for awesomeness..0 -
Magical double post.... carry on.0

You just love my collection.
Dead. Live spiders are way gross!
Lol.... Love him too ^^^0 -
i am like a small, excitable animal in real life and more or less the same over the internets, minus the hand-clapping and hopping around that i do0
-
Same.0

Online people can be whoever they want. In person sometimes people are just weird. Online some act all hard and like they are deep and edgy but in reality that suck pretty bad. I only like those who are really authentic and have a personality. It does show online.0
-
I'm pretty much the same, but I'm fairly animated in real life.0
-
I'm very shy in real life and only talk to one person about weight related things ever... Hence the ambiguous profile pic and pseudonym!0
-
Im actually much more reserved online than I am IRL - (In the minority) - On here I think twice before posting etc - I do not have that filter in person....0
-
I think my personality is pretty consistent both online and offline.0
-
I'm pretty much the same annoying, funny, shy, obnoxious, arrogant, nice, lovable person in all of my worlds.....0
-
For me it depends on who I'm talking to, both in real life and online.
I go to a lot of different forums. I visit a few that are about spiritual/religious things and I tend to be a little more serious and informative there.
I also go to a forum for parents (it's mostly women, lol) and I'm more myself there. I tend to be sarcastic and humorous, much like I am in real life.
Here on MFP I'm sort of mellow. This is the place I come to for fitness, nutrition, and health concerns. I'm sure as I get used to the community more my personality will shine through better.0 -
little more outgoing online, but overall same personality0
-
I just had this conversation with a friend I know through this website. I'm the same person online as I am off. But I do believe some people find it a little more freeing to be open online with new people that they will probably never meet.0
-
i'm way more motivating to my friends online that in "real life'. I have never said "great job on your food diary" to any of my real life buddies. I want to, but it comes out "dude, you seriously ate the whole thing??'0
