If you've figured out the way to be like this here and be social in real life, I guess that's awesome.

So is this just a way of getting all that pent up shite from real life out? I find it extremely difficult to not express myself with people in real life, and maybe I should use this more as a tool.

For example, if someone starts talking about political shite at work, do you just say something uncontroversial with then and then start fricking shite up here?

Genuinely interested.


The dynamics of real life conservation are so very different than this, I'd make some long explanations of that but I think you mostly know what I mean.

On here there it's a lot easier to misunderstand someone, and then the conversation is sailing in a direction that it shouldn't.

Quote sniping and manipulative tactics are a lot easier to pull off here.

There are alliances and reputations that are hard to overcome. Sometimes you may have multiple tomato throwers distracting from the substance of a conversation.

Spoken word allows for better explaining, especially when length of posts is important, typing too much takes away readers, but in real life you can talk and hold peoples attention.

I could keep going on this..

I guess. In real life you have some character collateral that can make some of the shite seem a lot less harsh, I get that.

ETA: I guess I just can't think of a situation(IRL or here) in which I'd call out a dude in a conversation claiming to have seen a documentary when I thought he hadn't actually seen it based on his opinion of it. Calling that out just seems self serving in any situation.

What are the possible results? Making him seem like a liar, or opening a path for you to say something about the documentary that you saw that maybe he didn't see. Either way, it's just asking people to validate that you're smart.

I guess this proves my memory of Mogray to be shoddy at best, though.

Damn, you were bad at the end.
