I've never really thought about this before. I think I am almost the same, but maybe less patient in person. I have been known to get a little grumpy and snotty when someone gets on my nerves online, but I am also likely to do that in person. I think it is easier to push my buttons in person though. After all, if someone is facing me and being a jerk, I am more likely to react. I also don't have time to think it through as much if someone is standing in front of me.

I strive to react in the same manner both in person and online. Over the years, I have actually been lucky enough to personally meet people that I first met online, including my husband. I would hate for there to be any false pretenses in those cases.

I'm probably nicer online than in real life because I have more time to consider my responses prior to hitting the send or submit button vs. speaking them. I suffer foolishness and ignorance online much easier than in real life because the effect is more indirect or hypothetical. In addition, I don't like using my online identity as a shield to misbehave. However, in both cases I have lapses and times where it's probably warranted to not be so nice.

Quite frankly, I am as bitchy in real life as I am online. My best friend just told me the other day that I have officially outranked her as the number one you-know-what in the world.

I was flattered.

Beware when I have PMS! Not only is it apparent in person, but it is apparent on the internet as well. I will usually publish articles that are rants, and I will answer questions on WebAnswers very flippantly. I'm sure that there are abusive reports on me every 31 days accusing me of being rude when, in fact, I am just brutally honest and am having difficulty being patient with (lame) people who wonder if they could be pregnant when they have unprotected sex.

I also possess an unusual amount of compassion, and this, too, is apparent both on line and in real life. I write a lot about social injustice and ethical issues. I work in my community to conquer social injustice and strive for equality for all. Because of my outspokenness, I'm a perfect person to speak for people who either don't have a voice or who are afraid to use their voice.
