Could you act in real life the same as you act on social media web sites?

I think this explains it all. I certainly couldn’t do it without being arrested. Seems rather odd when I think about it.

Could you?

I do act the same way, because my behavior is out in public when I am on Facebook. So I only ask people to be a friend if I have been introduced, and writing on someone’s wall is really like posting a note on postcard – anyone can read it.

If I were an actor and being paid, I could.

Sure. I’m a very authentic type, what you see and hear, here, is what you would see and hear in real life. I enjoy interacting, not acting.

I kinda think I do.

I act the same here as I do IRL. It would be too much work for me personally to create two different personas.

@RealEyesRealizeRealLies That was hilarious! It frames what we do online in a whole different way and shows the cult of me-ness for what it is.

Very clever.

I’m gonna print up some “like” post-it notes and start slapping them on everything everywhere.

Nah I unload on the internet. I’d run everybody off with depressingness if I acted this way IRL.
