Yeah Here's what I'm getting at. I don't care. I don't care if Max picks his nose, or if Proto has really bad acne, or if Kevin has a funny accent. This isn't love connection. If I had come to this MB hoping to find my dream man (I mean, if I were gay or whatever....) then maybe it would matter. But since that's not the case it really doesnt matter. The people who post here, love them or hate them, entertain and even sometimes enlighten me. That's all its about. If we're all shitbags in real life, who cares. I'm pretty sure you don't need an internet connection to be a shitbag. |

| kahljorn | I've only met a few people from the internet, and I go tdrunk as hell everytime. SO i can't really say if they are like what they are in real life or not(im tired). I'm probably not the same. | |

Wife beating is awfully hard to do when your busy masturbating to dead people. Just a fact. Not an observation. Or is it? Honestly though, the only thing I've ever lied about on the internet in the hopes that it would be taken seriously was that I can bench 240. I can only actually do 200.  Funny thing was, I wasn't questioned in my claim. People are far too trusting on the internet, but at the same time that trust is what gives people the urge to stay truthful. |

I will hold onto the hope that people like Mburbank and kellychaos and Gasux are dudes just like me * *Marty may have a bigger wiener [/b][/i] |

Then... DIE. How do you know any of the persons you know in real life aren't murderers, child rapists and wifebeaters? The Internet provides greater anonimity to people, which allows them to lie, but it also often causes a greater honesty: what's the worst that could happen? |

I suppose I really love Dawson's Creek. And as much as I love Joey and Pacey and the gang, I understand that they are probably not in person who they appear to be on tv.  I probably won't ever meet them though. So I guess I'll never know for sure. They could be delightfully wonderful, or ridiculously rude. Either way, it's entertainment. See what I'm getting at? |

There is no way for any of you to know if I'm a murderer or not. I'll say this. I have never been convicted of murder. |

| kellychaos | I'm also registered with some local message boards and I've found that most of the people that I met seemed sincere and pretty close to the persona they presented on the message board. Of course, in some of the get togethers we planned, there was a substantial percentage of people that didn't show up. THOSE were probably the ones that were full of shit. | |

If you are looking to stabilize friendships or relationships over the net, you have to hang around for a while, get to know the different personalities....sometimes it pays off to take a chance PM'ing someone! Personal messages can help you get more one-on-one with another member...but then again that doesn't neccessarily garantee you a lasting friendship. |

| FartinMowler | I think I have been reading too many Vince quotes... Anyway I know that Max isn't a murderer but I alway's think about the validity of communicating with people on the internet. | |

I think I understand what you're trying to say, but it was still horribly worded. In answer to your question, Max Burbank is no murderer. He is a leprechaun. Who prances. I should know, I met him under the rainbow that one day. :swoon |

Ya I guess it is kinda hard for me to convey what I am trying to say sometimes. Ok I will try to rephrase... Do you really think that there is any real meaning to communicate with someone on the internet if you don't also have some kind of off line relationship with that person. For example Max could be a murderer or Captain Bubba might be a wife beater. |

I'm sorry, I have to agree. You need to be more clear in what you're trying to communicate if you want to start a conversation. |

| ziggytrix | No seriously, out of all the fucked up things I've read in the past 48 hours, that was the least intelligible. :/ | |

| FartinMowler | and here we have "Captain Bubba" picks an avatar of a person with a bag on his head. | |

| CaptainBubba | What the fucking fuckidy fuck are you talking about? I honestly can't stand reading your posts. | |

| FartinMowler | No response must mean that intellectually and socially that my assumption is correct that there can't be any real trust in being social on the computer for most because responding in any true social way would comprimise any personal privacy that people want to exclude or perhaps hide. | |

Communication Does anyone find that even though there is a some form of communication on this site but there is also a murky grey underbelly? I just find that this site might have been set up buy a bunch of friends that might actually have real one on one day to day real time communication that has spawned into a site of people looking for something else and I can't figure out what it is? |
