OT: Online Persona vs. In Person Persona

[michaeluk26]

We have a lot of interesting people here. I see some folks that are kind and nice. I see some folks who are combative and mean, a some in between. It got me wondering if your online personality matches your in person peronality.

I'd say I'm pretty much the same except in person, I curse a lot. Whereas I don't on here for obvious reasons. I'm not combative in either realm. I let people think what they want.

I'm literally the exact same person I am in real life on here. I treat everyone with respect, I like to laugh. Honest to God when I'm having PTS it helps getting on here cause people are willing to listen and give advice. Being real, you'd have a blast hanging with me in real life. I think most people see that I'm real on here.

Edit- I've never put a single person on ignore. I've never attacked anyone personally. I've never bashed a player. We were pinned down by sniper fire in Iraq on March 13th 2007 in Baqubah. Thinking I was gonna get smoked and I prayed to get me out of there and I would act as Christ like as possible. I shit you not QRF showed up not 30 seconds later. So naturally I try to lift people up on here, not kick them when they are down. 👍

I'm, vindicated I guess is the word, to see there are so many posters who struggle w/ the salty language...my wife thinks I'm the only golfer in the world who'll drop the F-bomb. She is oblivious to how much self-control I'm exercising when I limit myself to the one expletive

I police myself when I’m around the grandkids and my elderly in-laws, but otherwise I drop a lot of F-bombs and my favorite, the M-word throughout the day, especially if I’m on the turnpike or I-95 in Palm Beach, Broward or Dade counties.

I walked into a conversation at work one day that my boss and several coworkers were having. The subject was if you had ever “inadvertently” 🙄 used the “N-word” at work. I said “no, but I sure have used the M-word a lot”. One of my coworkers spoke up and said he could vouch for that.

You're terrible in the tub. You take all the suds.

In all seriousness, I'm trying to be nicer online, but some stuff gets the best of me. Honestly I just want people to laugh and feel at ease.

I get madder at certain sports takes than political takes. For instance you could agree with me on everything political, but if you're a UK bball/Alabama football fan, I'd rather you be my polar opposite politically and not a front-running jerk. I'm more apt to hang with you.

I’m much more frustrated on the message board. I feel like many takes that I run into on the message board do not align with the takes of the fans around me in person.

I would definitely be perceived as nicer in person. Or at least not as blunt . Sometimes I’m smiling when I’m giving someone a hard time but people can’t see it on here .

I’m kind of a go with the flow type person in real life, not usually bothered by much. Just wanna do my thing and don’t worry about what others are doing. I try to be pretty authentic here. I don’t really have enemies, try to get along with everyone.

I love baseball, lifting weights, eating meat. Pretty simple. I really am 6’5 and get told I look like Jim Halpert quite a bit.

I'm told that I look like Bruce Campbell. When I was younger it was Val Kilmer.
