I'm exactly like I am on the forum in person. 6' 8'', 275lbs of pure *** kicking muscle. I'd make Hustler my bitch with the snap of my finger.
...but in reality, I'm much more quiet. I'm the observer in most groups/conversations. People always mistake my silence as shyness, but it's simply me listening to everyone else's shenanigans, taking in the environment. If I have a worthy input, I will do so. I don't have a case of verbal diarrhea like so many people seem to have, where they just can't shut the **** up and listen, they have to be yapping constantly. I find silence far less awkward than senseless small talk that neither person really gives a **** about in actuality.
I'm still an ******* in real life though. Don't say something stupid and not expect me to call you out on it and for me not to try and get you pissed off about it.

Damn guys, I'm trying! I can get people to drive nine hours from South Florida and over in Alabama, Kentucky (Magnamx-5 says he might make it) and even one from Toronto, Canada, but even some guys from the Carolinas say it is too far to come. Man up and join the group in Atlanta for the get together. Hell, I'm driving six and a half hours to put the f-ing thing on, so y'all come! Miataturbo.net Southeast Meetup - Miatas at the Lake 2010
If I had more notice, and it was a holiday weekend I would do it. But right now I have no miata and an insane work schedule. :/

BTW - Hyper isn't invited.
I actually look a lot like the Old Spice guy except that I'm white, not as muscular, have different facial features, and don't have a horse.
Edit - Well OK, the horse is dead.
