I guess I'll start. :hitler
"The more I think about it the more I realize how much of a social chameleon I am. I'm constantly lying about my religion/philosophy, my politics, what I do on the weekends, what media I do and don't consume, what my goals in life are, et cetera, et cetera.
My authentic self is buried under and intermingled with so many layers it's sometimes hard to separate it all. And I can't say I'm the only social chameleon in the world (We might be the majority and the people who are authentic are probably a tiny minority) but I feel like I take it to the extreme sometimes."

I know. I know. :neogaf

Oh, here's another "good" one:
Something I'm constantly reciting in my head is, "confidence perceived is confidence achieved." I use this simple mantra to psyche myself up and get through most business and social scenarios. Seems to work for me in short spurts but I wear out fast if I fake confidence for too long. The energy I expend on making it seem like I know what the hell I'm doing and saying is probably a lot more than the average person. Also, once my mental energy and focus is exhausted, I begin to slip up on my words as if they are tongue twisters. Or I'll just shut down and become reclusive. Some would chalk this up to being an introvert but I feel it's more anxiety based. I would assume that this anxiety stems from my stubborn perfectionism but it seems much more innate than that. It's like a constant and irritating hum in the back of my mind.

I posted something once on Twitter and someone reported it as "suicidal", so I guess I "wish I hadn't posted it" (beats me what tweet it was)

Don't leave me hanging here, brehs. (http://i.imgur.com/fFo9b.png)
Or I'll have to retitle this thread as: Atra's Diarrhea of the Mind

I once posted this joke to my facebook:
A mormon walks into a hotel and checks in. As he's finishing the process he tells the clerk "And your porn better be disabled!"
To which the clerk replied, "No, it's just normal porn you pervert!"
I got several messages as to why I was posting anti-mormon stuff on facebook.
:fbm
I wish I was kidding.
-
How is that anti-Mormon?
-
Making light of a "serious" issue like abstaining from porn is a big no no for most fundie religious types.
I mean, a mormon wanting to watch disabled porn? Preposterous! No one should ever assume that about a LDS member.

Oh, a bunch of tight asses then.
