Re: your online self (4.00 / 6)
  1.  It's too long and boring a story to explain my username, but I've had it since the Dean for America days and maintain it for consistency.

  2.  I don't think I'm much different IRL.  But for some reason people are much nicer to me IRL.  Either people are just nicer in general IRL, or I'm just less charming online... :)

Ah come on, don't leave us high and dry! It's just your username I am most curious about...

Then you must be excessively charming offline...

Yeah, apparently I am a real charmer here...  Or the world's last remaining Stalinist.  Same diff, eh?

Well, I've happened to know some extremely charming Stalinists...

Check out http://www.stalinvive.com - I am not quite sure whether they're making fun of themselves or they are right wingers making fun of the left.

Re: your online self (none / 1)
Actually, the latter. But they do a really good impersonation.
