Being an obnoxious, insensitive clod, VS "Pretending" to be an obnoxious, insensitive clod: both equally reprehensible?

I agree.

Yup. Both will be reprehensible.

Yuuup :-D

Be careful, this question registered 3.5 on the RosieG scale.

Daw, I was aiming for at least 4.0

You missed it by THAT much. :-)

I think actually being an obnoxious, insensitive clod is worse.

If you pretend to do it online line but don't act that way IRL, you're probably an obnoxious, insensitive clod who is also a chicken-s**t.

Nope... One is a personality flaw.  the other is willful intent

BAWK BAWK!

Agree

I actually feel like it's more pathetic to pretend to be like that, because if that's the only way you can get people's attention, that's just sad.

Yuuuup
