Real world vs Internet world
|
|
|
Its really odd ya know, in the "real world" , that is, my everday normal life (away from the computer), i am super reserved, and tend to not express my opinions. Generally, i tend overall, to keep my mouth shut. I am often accused of being "shy", or "too quiet",, and daydreaming/ staring off into space, etc... I never talk about what i do for a living, and i often hide the guitars when people come over. (visits from people are rare) My net personality seems to be the polar opposite. I find it extremely hard to hold back my true feelings and opinions here on the boards. In fact, as some of you may know, im sometimes overly out spoken, and opinionated to the point of being annoying and pissing people off. And i will break out the guitar and a video camera in a heartbeat. I suppose its not that surprising. But its amusing to me. Do you find you are a bit of a different person when you visit the forums/boards? TK

In fact, as some of you may know, im sometimes overly out spoken Get out !! really ? Its funny i was just thiking about you recently, on how you used to annoy the f*uck out of me ( because you didnt do the fake niceties) and then i realised that is silly, i apreciate it better when you are beeing honest, its more productive in the long run, i have come to learn you not just picking on people for the sake of picking on people, (and keeping them down) you acctualy really do belive in what you are saying, and most of the time you are right (ofcourse you no angel lol none of us are ) but i have have come to accept and apreciate the way you are and see behind the first impression. it has personaly helped me immensly, all of it the good and the bad feedback. I acctualy now love how honest and opinionated you are lol, even when i disagree i like it Me , i dont know, i am exactly as i am here in real life, i talk exactly like this ..ofcourse i wouldnt go to someones show and then criticise the f*ck out of him after lol ..Id find somenthing nice to say about it or keep quiet. Like i will be with mister J.M I tell stupid jokes at the worst times, i want the world to evolve around me if possible, if not... i start spreading ugly storyes about the guy the world does evolve around jk. I always feel sorry for the guy everyone is against ( even if its his own fault) like is someone says something so wrong and silly and everyone is telling him off, i find myself defending him...... still trying to figure out why, probably cause most of the time i am the one responsible for getting him to the state of saying something really wrong lol (I have a gift ) (so i guess I do it to get the balance back, and because most of the time i feel responsible) I dont know..i am the same i think. I also have trouble keeping my opinions to myself but is not cause i care about the subject is more like: " - Hey.. Hey .. Why are you looking away ? Dont look away... Look at me ..LOOK AT MEE ... and ofcourse i play the clown if i can put a smile on someos face,... (damn didnt realise this subect would be so hard, i gues other people would be better at judging if we are the same in real life as we apear here.) But dont get me wrong, i have a balance of everyhing, ego, low self confidence, houmor , serious, I am pretty eazy going, dont belive everything you read from me, sometimes i exagerate aspects of my personality because it amuses me to see who gets that I am joking and who really thinks i am like that... most people who i have spent a litlle time chatting with here, know that by now. I know Domenic is EXACTLY the same So Todk, i guess the question to you now is, do you hold your self back and not be the real you out there ? or are you over indulging in honesty here because you dont have to face the person you pi** off ? who is closer to the real you ? ( I am getting all Ricky Lake on your ass now......" - You know .... I used to be fat ". )

Well, i am the same person in both worlds, but as you said, its less "dangerous" to be outspoken on the internet, because i dont have that person standing right in front of me. lol, Il say !! Something comes to mind.. I remember you had some falling out with Andy a guitarist here many years ago, wasent he some kind of martial arts expert in his spare time ? I cant remember much about what happened, I just remmeber just bits and pieces, You , Andy, Argument, I wanna Hurt you !! I hate you !, Martial Arts . lol a pretty ugly combination in real life
