My split sides suggest otherwise.

Oh snap, bottom right of that pic you can see my Azumanga Daioh box set. That's the best show.

I'm more or less the same in real life. (though quieter and more aloof till I'm fully comfortable around them, like any normal human) I am overly accommodating and nice and polite to strangers-- a side effect, I think, of overcompensating for the social anxiety I used to have-- which often leads to them assuming they should immediately tell me their life story and talk about mystery rashes on their bodies, but I'm okay with this for the most part. Can be draining though. I've definitely been nicer than I should have to those who did not deserve it in the past. Nowadays I'm far more stoic and detached (especially after one of my former supervisors developed an inappropriate fixation with me), but I'm never impolite unless they're clearly awful.

And in terms of how I act online, honestly it just depends on the forum/people and the atmosphere. I generally like the atmosphere of MB (the fact that I'm inexplicably very fond of a lot of you gremlins probably helps)-- I just ignore the posters and threads that I know will inevitably annoy me and remain unbothered.

I think my tone is often misinterpreted as being a lot more serious than I actually am. As my musicbanter presence shows, I'm brief, direct, and on very rare occasions funny. The only time I really get talking is one on one when no one is around to hear and with someone who can hold a conversation without interrupting me constantly.

Well, irl my "tone of voice" sounds horrible like Jon Cryer's, but since this is the internet you don't get to hear my voice you can pretend it's smooth like Bob Ross' voice - you know the guy that painted trees and clouds and other landscape motifs.

The first result I found on Jon Cryer is him speaking on gay rumors. What do you have to say about the gay rumors?
