Does anybody else end up saying things online...

that you either didn't really mean or wish you didn't have to say later? Like my last thread about wanting to be a movie star. Sometimes I get these "moments" you see.

Did you actually want to be a move star for some, nameable, reason, and should people think it's silly?

I do say a lot of things online that make me fear that my real identity will be linked to what I write, that I will make a fool of myself, or paint myself into a corner to the point that I might not be able to say much at all or do much at all. Some form of paranoia or neurosis. With the rapid advancement of technology and the rapidly increasing alienation of people this does very much seem to be a spiritual phenomenon to me.

I think that thoughts have value and, provided that they are not harmful, should be acted upon.

I told a younger member here that she reminded me of my NT mum shortly after Pete Quaife of The Kinks passed away. There was another time I told a moderator that she was just like my father when I had to deal with a thread that was an attack on one of my special interests earlier on this year. I apologized to the moderator, because I felt that I really hurt her.

You only do this online?
