I'm quiet IRL so I tend to keep comments to myself; I don't really speak at all.

I'm equally kind as much as I am a blunt asshole, both online and offline. I'm happy to help people, share things with people, compliment people, enjoy myself with people, but the moment someone starts to treat me like an idiot or expect shit of me in the slightest, then I'm gonna come down hard on them with reality, no matter who they are.

A pair of eyes appear disguised,
I take flight and stay high in paradise,
With bad luck, snake eyes, a pair of dice.
I'm paralyzed, she speaks twice, a pair of lies,
It's parallel, apparent hell of parasites.

i just try to have tact as much as possible ever since i became an adult because the workplace and society expect adults to be civil in dealing with others, ye i know its fake but like they say fake it until you make it and it works since i overcome my teenage phase of swearing a lot for example

I'm probably just as nice in both realms, but maybe meaner online that in real life.

Online, I tend to crack racist jokes and iinsult others in a mildly aggressive way (but it's just teasing).
Now I see the secret of the making of the best persons.
It is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.

Actually I believe I'm calmer online and much more polite.

Irl if it's not something too formal or important I just don't bother faking it and looking interested or caring. Unlike online, irl you can't just ignore people when they address you, it also happens more often irl that people expect an answer or at least a reaction so, even though I hate to, I always resort to saying something like "I'm sorry it's not interesting" or "You should really ask him/her, I'm sure they'll be more helpful". People consider that rude / bitchy / snobbish but I can't make myself sit trough bs, boring stuff, whining and plain flirting.

I am more rude offline. :D Easier to go away and ignore the people there than to force yourself to stop visiting some website you used regularly but want to stop using after people there started to dislike you because you were too rude.

Not really, I'm pretty bitchy both online and offline. Not that I'm not a reasonably tolerant person overall, but I have no issues on calling people out on their shit, or stating any blunt or "harsh" opinions I might have. I'm more "filtered" offline though, mostly just to avoid any pointless confrontations, particularly with strangers.

I'm not really rude online nor IRL. I'll never be rude to someone for no reason. Even if I do have a reason, I'll try to act civilised.

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

Oh i'm definitely more rude in real life. If I don't like the shit you're saying online I can always go offline, make an excuse, block, etc. But in real life, the only way to avoid further conflict is to set it straight no matter how rude I'm going to sound.

On the bright side, I'm not a frequent verbal swearer.

I'm not really that rude irl or online. I hate confrontation so I'm mostly just very.. quiet and agreeable, but I suppose I'm more likely to speak my mind online than I would irl.

Ironically, I think I'm more blunt and rude in real life than I am online. In fact, I am now that I think about it. Even though I say what I think online, I try not adding unnecessary provoking statements that might start further discussions and/or unnecessary arguments. In real life, my bluntness is probably one of the worst traits I have. I just say what's on my mind immediately, and unfortunately I don't necessarily think before doing so. It's become a pretty bad habit and even I'm aware of it lol.

As always, it depends who I am talking to~

But if you are mean to me, chances are I will probably be more rude talking to you online than in person due to this newfound boldness I tend to have when talking online~

IRL though, I am usually very very quiet. Even if you upset me and I am boiling up inside, chances are if you are a complete stranger, the worst I will do is glare at you, and if you look at me, I might even be scared to even do that x.x

I hate how pathetic I am in real life. -____-

I'm the same in real life and online. Like I always say, if you're kind to me, I'll be kind to you; if not, then I won't be kind either.

Most people feel more powerful with online anonymity and they think since no one knows who they really are it gives them a reason to be a jackass. I've never understood that.

Depends on the person I talked to, both irl or online.

but I'm generally blunter online in sake of experiment.

Depends on who I am conversing with, as already said. Some people really piss me off on both mediums, and unless I'm in a situation where trashing them will be detrimental, I usually won't hesitate to make my feelings known, because I will not tolerate certain kinds of behavior.

No lol. What you see is what you get on here, with me anyway. Im' a very kind-hearted person. I couldn't hurt a damn fly.

There's hardly anything I'd be an asshole about, it would wake putting a hell of a lot for me to get angry at you.

we all likely and honestly have been a-holes online at some point of our lives in this day and age. A good example is flame wars where people go to levels of crazy they would never go to in real discussion.

Yes I am more straight forward because there are less visual cues.

And it is what people expect.

All good. I like some of the thoughtful answers on MAL....

While most people say the negative shit they want online because 99% of the time nobody can do anything about it, I'm the opposite. I'm more of an asswipe in real life. It's different for me though 'cause in real life I can't just reply with "Blocked", delete what they said and be done with it. Thankfully it's rare for people to try me so it's not often I have to be. And now that I think about it, I'm surprised nobody has tried fighting me because of the stuff I said lol
