There's a topless haircut place around here named "Sexy Scissors". I have no clue what services they provide.
Do you identify as a feminist?

I brought up the manicure discussion at lunch here at work. It was unanimously agreed upon that men who get manicures might as well start wearing high heels and tucking things back.
See, I knew you'd come around to my awe-inspiring sexiness
Congrats, you work with a bunch of morons.

If I worked with him and I thought manicures were ok I wouldn't tell chaz because he would get all hargly gargly and bitchy about it. Sometimes it is just easier to go along with the stupidity.

Says the guy that works for the IRS. ZING!
I've never had a manicure, but I still think it's moronic to say stuff like "if you do X, turn in your MAN CARD". Not that I have any pride in being a guy in the first place.
That much has been obvious for a long time.

I have talked to you on here for like three years so unless you are personaing the hell out of this thing, I think I know you at least some.

Chazwozel
Yeah, what are my parents like? How was my life growing up? What's my favorite TV show? Who do I hang out with on the weekends? What's my wife's name? You don't know shit about me. I don't sit here and pretend I know anything about you other than you're dipshit, backwoods moron with no worldly experience other than Bumfuck, South Dakota. Please extend me the same courtesy.

I don't know facts about your life but I sure as hell know your personality. That was what I was commenting.
I don't have to know your parents to know that you hargle gargle about this issue because you DID IT IN THIS THREAD. I don't have to know your wife to know that you are not afraid to mock or insult people when you disagree because you also did it in this thread.

Yeah, internet and reality are two different things you dumb fuck. Do you assume that Shego goes around murdering people as well? Are you really this naive?
M
makare
No, chaz, they aren't. That is something you should really learn. People are people. So as I said, unless you are operating as a persona, it is reasonable to conclude that the person you are online is the person you are in "reality."
C
Chazwozel
Then, I'm sorry, but you truly are stupid.
M
makare
Then it is an online persona. Who is the real person then?
I am the same in "reality" as I am online. Except of course in real life I do much better at avoiding people I don't like.
If "Chaz" turns out to be a persona I will be quite happy some of my faith in humanity might be restored.

FTFY. If you call someone an asshole online, "in reality" you just called someone an asshole. Whether you would do it face-to-face doesn't make it any less real.

The medium is the message. Our societal niceties notwithstanding, the signal-to-noise ratio is so low online that the way we communicate has changed to accomodate. Calling someone an 'asshole' online is nowhere near as powerful, degrading, or even unexpected, as in person. It's similar to what you would say to a persons face as opposed to behind their back. You're right in that it doesn't make it any less 'real', however the damage different is mitigated by the presentation.

Unless someone thinks, hmm I can call someone an asshole which I otherwise wouldnt do simply because it is LESS hurtful online.
The fact that they are the kind of person who would call someone an asshole is the same in person or online.

You've done it, Dr. Freud. You've unlocked the mystery that is Chazwozel.
My name is Leon Kompowsky and I’m a brick layer from Patterson, New Jersey. All my life I was very angry until one day I just talked like this. All of a sudden everybody was smiling at me and I was only doing good on this Earth. So I kept doing it. To make a tired point, which one of us is truly crazy?
DOES THE FACT THAT I TYPE IN ALL CAPS MEAN I AM THE TYPE OF PERSON WHO YELLS ON A REGULAR BASIS or do I just have a typing problem?

Ok you can call me stupid all you want but I fucking hate Freud so pick a different psychologist. Call me Dr Jung or something.
It would probably mean you are the kind of person who needs a lot of attention or is not detail oriented.

This thread is going places. Weird, edge of the cliff kinds of places. Places that other places mock in the lunch room.

Haha, that's one of the first things Dave mentioned when he heard me talking on Halforum Vent. "You're a lot less angry than you type."

I quite agree. I was commenting on you and Chaz using the word "reality". "Reality" is not limited to what you say to people's faces. What you say about someone behind their back can have a strong strong behavioral effect on who you say it to which can contribute to how they interact with the person you're speaking with. Your online behavior, even if it's an affected persona, is still a facet of who you are, shaped by the social circumstances under which you're expressing yourself. That people may mistake the persona for you is a side-effect, and no different than if someone draws a mistaken conclusion about your character during a conversation at work.

Depends on the message and the context. I am not concerned with how people type I am concerned with what they type. If someone in person has a speech impediment that is not a personality trait. If someone on here types in caps or hates apostrophes (like me) that is not really revealing to personality.
I made conclusions about chaz by looking at what he says not how he says it. His use of syntax is pretty irrelevant.

This is Chaz. Who says he's not just trying to get a rise outta you?
How we communicate a message is just as or often more important than what we are communicating. In person, I can call you an asshole with a smile on my face and it could be taken as jovial banter. Or, I can call you an asshole under my breath with my arms crossed against my chest and the interpretation of the message is entirely different. Equating dissimilar forms of communication to the same message is actually one of the symptoms of higher-functioning autism (Aspergers). Online, we're all autistic. The only interpretation we have is based on 1) historic interaction 2) our own mood/bias/ 3) the way we WANT to interpret it.
There's so many readily identifiable personality phenotypes on the board, it's actually kind of fun to play "What's this person really like?"
