Are you someone totally different on Yahoo! Answers than compared to the "you" in "real" life?

Do you have an internet persona? Is there someone you turn into (kinda like the Hulk) when you get online? Do you make up some character online that isn't the real you to escape real life? Do you decorate your 360 page with fake pictures of other people because that's who you would like to be?

Is the "real" you the person you are on the internet, because it's easier to be the "real" you when you're not seeing someone face to face (come on you can tell the truth I can't see you)? Is it to hard to be the "real" you in reality?

Are you the same online as your are in "real" life?

I personally am the real me online (those are even my real pictures on my 360 page, amazing I know), because I don't have the time to think up someone else or try and be someone else.

I have heard that imagery is a very powerful tool. Is there any way I can use my thinking to suddenly change the circumstances of my life? For example, could I just imagine myself as being in perfect health & then never have to eat, exercise, bathe or brush my teeth again?
Could I just assume I know everything & then somehow tap into the collective knowledge of the universe & have that knowledge in my mind?
Can I make myself grow?
Can I be invisible?
Can I fly?
Can I do all of this stuff effortlessly just by thinking? I don't want to put in lots of effort. I feel like maybe the only reason I have not been able to achieve any of these things is because in the back of my mind I am thinking that they are impossible, & that self defeating attitude is preventing me from being successful. Like maybe I can jump as high into the air as I want, or teleport, or suddenly learn all skills, but my incredulity at the possibility of things is holding me back. Or maybe I have not practiced enough.

I had this dream last night after watching CNN (I like politics). What does it mean? I’m a little freaked out about it because I have lots of sexual dreams involving Bush. (sometimes Blair too.) the dreams are always very erotic and always in places like the whitehouse or the U.N.

I heard someone say "A pessimistic person is more realistic than an optimistic one."

I don't agree. Do you?

This kid at school keeps throwing food at me at lunchtime. He is bigger and tougher than me. I don't know how to stand up to him as I am afraid of being beaten up. I need to get him to stop because it is bringing me down as I am also worrying about an operation in 2 weeks.

Thanks a lot!

i love my dad and he loves me..... i know he loves me. my boyfriend says that he dosnt but he dose. the thing is that when he gets mad he goes out of control. once he picked me up by the neck and threw me onto the table that was behind me and i had to hide under it for protection. another time he smacked me so hard that i thought i was gonna bleed. and a couple of days ago he lost his temper and picked up a chair and threw it onto the ground and broke it. and its only me that he gets mad at. its never my mom or my brother its only me. and now im too scared to go anywhere near him. so my questions are: 1.what should i do about this whole situation and 2. does he love me?

This question popped up in my mind. Who do you think would win in a debate over capitalism; Karl Marx or Adam Smith?

This is merely out of curiousity.

By that I mean, that many don't get a real good image of what we are like as people, versus what is portrayed by the media. Opinions?

Have you ever had a dream that you time travel back in time and visit your family?

I already had 2 similar dreams of me traveling to pre-1950s.

Last week i had a dream that i was in the 1950s, and was visiting my mother's first home. Basicly it was my grandmother's house in the 1950s where my mom grew up.

As i visited the Grandmas house in the 1950's, i saw all my aunts as kids, and my mother was a toddler. This being that my mother is the youngest, she is now 57, and i have five aunts, with the oldest being about 67.

As i entered my grandmother's home, and fully aware of this time traveling experience, i picked up a kid no older than 1 years old.

But suddenly was holding a baby but to my surprise the baby i was carrying was my mother. Yes , i was carrying my mother as an infant.

My mother is now, 53years old.

Also i remember seeing my aunts(KIDS) running around the house, and one of them said told me that the baby i was carrying was "Kelly" .

Kelly is my mom's name

More specifically (besides those of us just "cheating" on our homework), I am just curious about some of your reasons for enjoying this Q&A forum from time to time. Personally, I enjoy having an outlet to share some of my knowledge, opinions, and experience. How about you?
