No. Smurfing. Way.

[NorthernChaosGod]

I'm basically the same, only in real life I'm more vulgar. XD

Haha, this. I swear more and probably make more crude jokes.

[Madonna]

Physically, I can torment a person in more ways than I am capable of online!

I hear stories of people divorcing themselves into different personae but have yet to honestly see it in life! Perhaps some traits are better expressed in one medium compared to the next, but meeting someone physically and online does not oft result in knowing two different people!

If one finds discord between perceptions online and off, perhaps one best look into better expressing oneself in both media!

[G13]

I'm basically the same, except I'm less stupid. My jokes are just as dumb though!

[Peegee]

I guess if there's a difference between my online self and IRL self is that I don't say something in every single bloody conversation (while I can do that in the forum). However I do observe everything with a mix of bemusement and awe regardless.

[rubah]

you also have to listen to his bemused canuck accent irl

[Peegee]

That's right! I actually speak sometimes

btw how WOULD people describe it? It's probably a mix of Chinese english accept and Markham district vernacular, but how does it sound to YOU

Especially you Southern types.

[Slothy]

The one thing I have here that I don't have in 'real life' is time to think over what I say while I'm typing. I suck at articulating and trying to explain exactly what I'm thinking in person.

This I suppose. I don't completely suck at articulating my thoughts in person, but I just seem to be better when writing in any form.

Plus I swear in person. A lot. smurf is probably the greatest word in the english language.

[Inferno]

Pretty much the same, but I talk more irl

[Chloe.]

I talk a lot more in real life, and swear quite a bit

[aquatius]

I like to think I'm less whiny and annoying but I'm probably the opposite...

[superbeckie.]

Oh God. IRL, I'm a cocky, swearing, noisy twat. Also, my FF & All Time Low obsessions are much more obvious IRL. I'm always making bad jokes. But I'm also a lot smarter than I appear on here, so it's not ALL bad...

[Hambone]

The one thing I have here that I don't have in 'real life' is time to think over what I say while I'm typing. I suck at articulating and trying to explain exactly what I'm thinking in person.

This. I trip over my words a lot IRL, but I do talk more.

I, uh... I guess I don't swear as much. I don't talk a lot, but when I do the things I'm saying are pretty much the same kind of stuff as the stuff that I say when I am typing here.

Opposite for me. I have the mouth of a sailor IRL.

I'm much more opinionated IRL. With real life situations that piss me off, I usually have something to say about it, but online, I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt because I don't really know them, so I sit on the fence or stay out of conversations more often.

Same here, people often say what I have to say before I can and then I get sad. I hate you all, thieves.

IRL, my sense of humor's a lot more conspicuous and even edgy. It's very dry and on-the-spot, which is something I think I lose here because of the fact that I have more time to think about what I'm going to say on EoFF...

so I guess the main difference between EoFF Hambone and IRL Hambone is that IRL Hambone is a little more risky in conversation...risky.

I'm just as awkward though.

[Rye]

Uh, I'm not too different.

I'm more polite. I'm a little more well-spoken. I come across as intelligent IRL, wheras people think I'm stupid online.

I swear a little more offline.

[qwertysaur]

but you don't sound stupid online Rye

[fire_of_avalon]

but you don't sound stupid online Rye

That's what I was thinking!
