scout Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 What persona's have you used to get you through the day in and day out bullshit? For example - I know some about mechanics, so when I take my truck to a new mechanic I play the already perceived ignorant woman persona to see if I can trust them to do the job right. JAW, I want some input here as you are the one that inspired this. 1 Quote

I take on the same sort of role (ignorant person) at comp repair shops if I don't have the part to see if they know what they're doing. Quote RoyalOrleans is my real dad!

jokersarewild Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I pretend to be a slack-jawed FedEx deliveryman. I pretend to be a Demi-God, when I'm really a God. On a separate side note, persona's what? Quote RoyalOrleans is my real dad!
phreakwars Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I pretend to be an arrogant, rude, obnoxious, sarcastic, prick named Phreakwars. In real life, I'm a real sweet guy named Eric. . . Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars
scout Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 I pretend to be a slack-jawed FedEx deliveryman. I'd try that one but I don't quite know how that would help me out much. I'm basically a strong person. But not a mean one, all though I have been told I'm meaner than a snake. You? Quote
builder Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I pretend to be really interested in interior design, and colours and shit, up to the point of going shopping with my client for tiles and bath tubs and shower cubicles. I also pretend to be shocked when my bill for consultancy fees gets queried. I mean how much do you think my time is worth? Quote Persevere, it pisses people off.
ParasiteGod Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 I pretend I care about what people are saying. I've noticed if people think you care, they'll spend less time trying to make you care, thus reducing total interaction time. 90% of the time all I hear is "HEY ERYKA". 2 Quote I want to report a double murder. If you go one mile east on Columbus Parkway to the public park, you will find kids in a brown car. They were shot with a 9mm Luger. I also killed those kids last year. Good bye Brooks, I like you. Now get out of here. Go home.

I've noticed if people think you care, they'll spend less time trying to make you care, thus reducing total interaction time. I'll have to try that... I don't really use many persona's. Perhaps, that could explain my lack of close relationships. Quote Smart men learn from their own mistakes; Wise men learn from others. I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

RoyalOrleans Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 And you care about - what? I care a lot about the Transformers, because they are more than meets the eye. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
atlantic Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I'm pretty much chock full of bullshit, and can't even pretend anymore. When someone or something is bullshit, I usually state so and leave. I wish I could pretend! Quote Do the right thing!
ImWithStupid Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I care a lot about the Transformers, because they are more than meets the eye. I hear you man. Autobots, Decepticons, it's an epic battle for sure. Quote
RoyalOrleans Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I hear you man. Autobots, Decepticons, it's an epic battle for sure. The movie will be released in the Summer of 2007! Seriously, I can't wait.

Lethalfind Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 The only one I can think of is when someone rear ends me (yes its happened many times) I pretend I'm not about to come unglued on them...I stay calm and reasonable when in my head I am screaming "how the FUCKIN hell could you rear end something as huge as my truck !!! Its not like you could miss it if you were looking in the direction you were driving !!!" I feel myself on the edge of ranting and raving like a truly mad person and it gets worse every time someone rear ends me but I manage to stay silent while their radiator spills fluid all over the road and the other driver starts to realize just how majorly fucked up their car is. I just shake my head and wait until I can leave in my truck with no damage on it...I think thats why I manage to stay quiet. Quote I am a pathetic piece of shit leeching single mom.
