TSR is a great place. For me, its a place where I can say things that I probably can't get away with saying "IRL" without getting a slap, fist or bullet wound.
Contrary to what some of you think, I do not tell girls that I think they're all gold-diggers IRL. Im actually reasonably charming. Also, I'm not as elitist, as pretentious, as insulting or as narcissistic.
These are all things I want to be and are probably a truer reflection of my character, but IRL, people can hit you. On TSR, they can't.
Pretty much, I'm definitely a bit more adventurous with my humour as there are some things IRL that you can't joke about without being labelled a scumbag, but on the whole that's the only real difference. I'd also actually say I'm more argumentative IRL, I'm stubborn and won't back down if I think I'm right about something IRL, whereas online I often read something and begin to reply and tell them why I think they're wrong and I just end up thinking "You know what, I don't care enough that I can be arsed to take the time to write a reply"
Pretty much the same irl, maybe a little bit more grumpy My reasoning is that I have to deal with a lot of silly people at work, so usually I just walk grumpy all day and swear a lot if someone peeps me off
I'm totally different. :3 I'm a lot quieter in real life and prefer textual communication to speaking to people in real life. There's so much opportunity to take your time with an argument and refine it when you have the benefit of being able to edit something and perfect it before it's sent, as a whole, to the person you're communicating it too (although even then I make typos and little mistakes that I then furiously correct ).
I suppose I sound a lot more patient on here as well. I would normally get bored very quickly if I had to listen to half the stuff I read on here and would probably be dismissive of a lot of people whom I talk to on this website in real life.

You wait until Christmas, Junior. I owe you 4105 slaps.
