I was reading my more recent posts, and something occurred to me. Something that I generally would not miss with my infinite wisdom., Am I becoming too much of a jerk? I mean, yeah, I'm sarcastic, and cynical, always.

 

But I have the feeling that some people just that don't get that kind of writing, and might genuinely get offended by it. Not to name names, ~Another Chaotic Username~, but I seem to make some people angry with the way I post.

 

What should I do? I don't want to make my posting habits into an issue.

Personally, I don't mind it. I like it, actually. I agree with you on alot of things, so my view is probably a bit skewed though.

Sarcasm's hard to detect on the Internet. That might cause people to think you're being aggressive. Personally, I've never thought of you as a jerk, but it's something to consider.

Some people just fail to understand sarcasm or a joke on the Internet, since they can't see your body language or hear your tone. I get this all the time as well (I'd probably win a "most annoying user" competition). It's just hard to tell sometimes. You're not a jerk for sure. :P

1. Yes. 2. No. xD

 

Well I don't know you. So to be more specific you come off as a jerk sometimes, even though we have no problem with each other. Not to condescend but you remind me of myself 5+ years ago, blunt and sarcastic to the core. I did it to compensate for not being able to express myself in person. I don't know why you do it, but if it's how you really feel and not just a persona you've adopted to look cool, then of course you shouldn't change it. Be true to yourself.

I don't really know you, but no and no.

Stay the way you are. ;)

Everyone (yes, everyone; me, PDS, Twiliscael...) loves you the way you are. ;)

What should you do? Have you considered telling them to suck it?

There are five people who can suck it.

It's just the way I talk. I talk like my posts in person. (No wonder I don't have that many friends)

 

Yes you are but that's what makes your post so entertaining to read.

I don't know if this is a compliment or not. Thanks...I guess?
