I'm all for the physical interaction. Yes I do enjoy talking to people online, but, for me at least, the connection just doesn't feel as completely real. I mean, I know there's a person on the other side of the computer, but I need to see people smile, hear them laugh, hug them when they're sad. It's also very easy to misread the intent of someone (sarcasm, sadness) without hearing the tone and other parts of communication.

For me, there's some things where words alone just don't cut it.

That's not to say I don't enjoy speaking to people online, and making friends online and such. I just value my non-internet friends and family above all else. (and there's just as many dumb people online as there are offline)

Any particular reason that you chose me?

Well, let me lay your fears to rest. I haven't killed any kittens lately, nor dogs. There was the rabbit, but that was an accident. I also haven't killed any humans yet.

Well I chose you because I figure you're a nice young man. Not because I think you decapitate kittens. No, of course not that.

How do you even know I'm nice/young/a man? Besides the fact that I portray myself as an angry guy who's too nice for his own good. =P

>_>

I'll go with both. After all, face-to-face, you get to hear tone and see body language, but then again online, you can actually take time to think things out, and if you decide to change something a minute later, you can just go back and do it.

Which makes it more like you are reading someone's analysis or documentation of something instead of having a natural conversation. *shrugs* forum conversation has its place, but you're missing out if you don't value some human interaction on a more basic level.

Shooting the breeze just to be around someone who's company you enjoy? Not a bad way to kill a few hours.
