I'm not talking Houdini. I’m talking about transcending our everyday life.
I was thinking about the role of forums and chat rooms. Every regular forum user has a personality that is skew from their own, whether it is typecast or of entirely their own construction. It might be simply you have more confidence to express your views, or pursuing some complex role play.
Have you ever thought of starting over…some place different away from every one you know?
Is a little bit of escapism necessarily a bad thing?
I was thinking about my own profile on this forum. I have been criticised before by one or two members (no names) for not revealing where I am. I have always thought: 'What business is it of theirs?'. Besides I haven't been that conspicuous about myself. I have provided enough 'real' information.
However fantasy wise I'm lacklustre. dt01pqt is simply an old university username as anonymous as a number. If don't know I'm Paul. My escapism doesn't involve aliases or endearing txt speak.
I will combine an introduction with a topic. I know there are forum formalities but I can't help myself. I'm interested in engaging conversation not formalities.
I always write too much. (half of it is deleted)
