Do you present your authentic self on the interwebz? I think I do. What I convey is pretty much who I am IRL. Furthermore, I think what I show to the world IRL is actually who I am. I am realizing lately that It gets easier to be my authentic self the older I get.
What about you?

I try my best to represent the real me online as well as in real life, there are of course a few differences just because the medium of the Internet allows me to oftentimes be slightly more adventurous in what I'm willing to say than I normally would in most social settings...

I feel during my time on the board I have become less of an internet character and more of the real me. Though I always tend to exagerate about things on the internet and in real life. Why tell a boring normal story when you can tell an exciting sketchy one.

for better or for worse...yes. i am what i am and that's all that i am.
it has been pointed out that i have two very distinct and separate personalities, which exist both IRL and online. i'm a Gemini so i guess it goes with the territory.

I'm more chatty online, and socially awkward IRL.
I'd say this about me. It's basically the same. Actually, Im probably a lot less abrasive in real life. I know lots of you folks prolly think ( and rightfully so) that Im a raging doucher. But really Im just a clown, who blows it at every crucial moment.

I think this describes me, too.
I don't try to be someone different online than who I am, its pretty much what you see is what you get. I'm not always good IRL in large social situations, so I might come across as aloof but its mostly because I'm more comfortable in smaller groups or one-on-one.

You're a judgmental prick on the interwebs, but I know you to be exactly the same in real life, sans the prick part. Well, except for that one time.

Hanging out with JP and Karen is hard. I'm myself to a tee with JP...but try to tone it down out of respect for Karen. It's a conundrum!
I respectfully disagree. Karen's a good little woman and withstood me knocking her up and putting an egg on the back of her noggin all in the same summer. She's got endurance. I have a lot of respect....well, my brand of respect of course. 
unfortunately my reputation precedes me but i sure do live up to it hehehe
