i'm more of a dick on the interwebs and I talk smarter but that doesn't mean I don't talk smart and am not a dick in real life.

If so, what?

I'm generally a nice guy IRL, but on the interwebs, I can be quite a jerk. And an opinionated one at that.

That's why we love you.

I'm pretty much the same these days, hilarious, smart, average to look at but generally idolised regardless.

I used to try on different personalities when on the internet, sort of like when you transfer to a new school and you get to completely reinvent yourself. But my natural personality always ends up asserting itself, so in the end my internet personality is pretty much the same as my IRL self.

I'm a fluffy bunny out there in realville, especially in unfamiliar company. I feel able to express myself in more strident fashion on the 'net, though this doesn't mean I treat people poorly. I hope.
To live in England for the pleasures of social intercourse - that would be like searching for flowers in a sandy desert. ~ Nikolai Karamzin

The English think very highly of their own humanity; I am willing to admit they are not inhuman... ~ Louis Simond

The people of England choose to be, in a great measure, without Law and without Police; they have reached a very distinguished point in industry and civilisation without them. ~ Morning Chronicle


On, on!
