Becoming Myself

The name I chose for SR is taking over my personality here.

All my comments are cold, yet I am trying to blend this with... something.

Usually on internet forums I am "Maui," the Hawai'ian demi-god of solar-terrestrial physics. But that name was taken. In my warped mind, catalyzed nuclear fusion is the next best thing.

Gotta go. Wife thinks I spend too much time at SR.

Not if it's keeping you sober.

I don't think your comments are cold, matter of factly I just "quoted" you and said "Ditto to what Cold said..."

So are you looking to change, to adjust or manage it, or are you just making a statement?

I have had to adjust how and what I say, just because of the nature of plainly written words and the lack of body language and inflection that is the internet forum. What I say in real life doesn't always translate well here or on other internet sites. It's no use in beating yourself up for being "cold" unless you're looking to change something. Being true to yourself is the most important thing.
