GO! Smell the virtual personas

April 15th, 2008 by Jim

When online, do you ever take up the role of someone else? Hide behind your avatar perhaps or have fun typing things you wouldn’t normally dream of?

Maybe you are your true self when you write. So - Fact or fiction - your choice please. Do tell!

You tell me Jimmy boy. I’d like to think I am a little lighter hearted in real life but in general I think its pretty much wysiwyg with me.

See I was down the butcher’s shop last night, gettin some tripe and cow heels for me an David’s tea (we likes em cooked in milk an onions right) when that Cherie Blair walks in, pushes right to the front of the queue and says, “2 boxes of matches, 9 Bic Biros, a can of petrol an a push bike please!”

Then she gives the butcher one of them gurning grins she finks is a smile, turns on er eels, says, “Wotcher Elt,” an walks out!!

Honestly enough when I first started on the internet I would get all self-conscious and bugged out…until I realized that was silly. I’m just me as Aussie wrote warts and all :)

Great Question. It seems the only way I can really maintain SELF is to continually push the envelope and be who I REALLY am. It makes blogging easier for me as well as less stressful. I don’t do well being something other than myself. I don’t even think I know how. I feel stronger, more true, happier and less cyber stressed if I come from my heart.

Dead right RR - From the heart is the way to GO! Dress it up and it’s generally a weak comment or post…

OUch about the weak posts, but if you really must know…In reality I’m a six foot rocking hot model featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated. I almost got a part on the old Baywatch series, but Pam Anderson beat me to it.

I am my total flirting self online…I am kinda shy I think in the real world. My friends say I’m outgoing..I just suck it up and do things. I would miss out on alot if I didn’t do that!!! :)

sorry folks - its just me - no fake, no fur. This is who i am (revealed in many posts and comments to date). Yes of course we’d just love it if we could welcome everbody as a customer of Fabulous Photo Gifts, and our social networking has a certain commercial flavour to it (some more times than others) but we’re all human and we also enjoy just meeting new people and conversing with them and who knows, one day, they may want the name of someone who does what we offer or be able to recommend another? Its a big world.
