i tend to assume people online are telling me the truth, but i also hold out for the possibility that the 21 yr old blonde chick i'm talking to is a chubby duder

people suck

carne asada, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:35 (sixteen years ago) link

i think its fair to treat online as a world where you doubt everyone

The ILXors I've met in real life have been pretty much the same as they were online. Just because of this one fucked-up case doesn't mean I'm gonna start doubting everyone for no proper reason.

i never lied to anybody and dont really give enough of a fuck to bother

i know this, it's just the dissing music i like being a dick that gets to me

blueski, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:35 (sixteen years ago) link

To everyone who trusts people on the intertron: I have a bridge to sell you and also you have won the Nigerian lottery.

"IT'S THE INTERNET, WE'RE ALL FAKE" is total bullshit, LOTS of us know each other for realz, and lots of us travel and meet other ILXors too. I should know, SeattLX took care of me (fanx, guys!). You can't have it both ways, either friendships that started online mean something and therefore being fake and leading people on is shitty, or none of it means anything and then what the fuck are the regulars doing on this thread looking for warm fuzzies?

Laurel, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:39 (sixteen years ago) link

my myspace page views and song plays have increased dramatically since this thread blew up. thanks everyone.

I'm kinda with tuomas on this one, actually. Of course you can't believe everything, but doubting everything seems unnecessarily cynical. In my experience, ilxors irl are much MORE pleasant than they are on the boards. And a lot of us have met friends and SO's here -- the inclination is to think of it as a relatively safe place. Which is why it's even more messed up when someone flagrantly violates that.

LAUREL OTM

Also, I've been on a date with someone who'd put "porn-quality" pics of her online, and she was indeed the girl from the pics. I think most people's online and offline personas are pretty much the same, even if some people use the anonymity of the net to fabricate things.

(x-post)

Laurel OTM!

Tuomas, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:41 (sixteen years ago) link

Tell me, was it a headleass porn quality pic of her ass, and then a bad quality (and again, headless) pic of her boobs?

Doubting people is healthy and is not the same thing as mistrusting people. Or do I mean that the other way around...? Now I'm doubting myself.

HI DERE, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:42 (sixteen years ago) link

i once went on an internet date with someone who sent me a photo of a girl who looked like lucy liu and when i picked her up she looked like a short, squat javier bardem.

omar little, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:43 (sixteen years ago) link

and i love javier bardem but come on now

omar little, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:43 (sixteen years ago) link

i once read a page on the internet where a guy claimed he walked in on his roommate having anal sex on the couch

remy bean, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:44 (sixteen years ago) link

remy bean, Tuesday, 16 October 2007 18:44 (sixteen years ago) link

I mean, no one will ever want to meet me again after the last few days, but at least I make myself look WORSE online than I really am.
