The Universal Appeal of El Diablo

[octopi]

I always feel like a supernerd when I say "on this forum I read..." but sometimes the best observations/conversations come from things I read online. People don't really 'get' why I post on forums.

I find that for the most part the people I choose to interact with are wittier, have better memories and a greater span of interests than most people I know 'offline'. Most of the men I have had longish relationships with have been via messageboards, as well. For the most part, they were just as quirky offline as online, which appeals to me.

Mostly when I meet people from the Net I just clam up and get too nervous though. I guess overall, people tend to be less assholeish in real life, but just as funny and observant, overall, as they are online.
