Especially outside of NC. Always a tricky one, especially when those people you don't really know in real life IM you and act like your friend but aren't really.

Conversation as follows
him "Who you talking to? (on AIM)"

me: "....a friend"

him: "I gathered that but who?"

me: "uh her name's....(starts to say tdub screen name) err...stephanie!"

him: "You don't know her name?"

Me:


especially.

if it must come up in conversation with somebody who doesn't know about it, I will refer to it as "this nc state message board (that I sometimes post on)." never had any other questions bout it besides that

my ex used to read it and tell me how horrible i am to even talk to people like this blah blah blah but i told her no one is like this in real life and almost everyone i've met in person has been a great friend.

At first I was weird about it, like I was being naughty for posting on here, now he sees how much I check this shit.

Keeps a real perspective on things but he's learning that this place sometimes puts silly ideas in my head.

a few of my friends in raleigh know about tww - most don't know i have a username on here though - the few that do don't bring it up in conversation most of the time

none of my friends in atlanta know

my wife tells me from time to time to quit looking so much when she's not getting enough attention or i'm not listening to what she's saying

if someone that doesn't know about tww sees me on it then i just say an nc state message board

I say "unaffiliated NCSU message board." And then I explain that it's serious business.

In honesty, it's harder to explain 4chan or /b/ then TWW.

a bunch of us were having a discussion about something on tww once night at Biofreak70's house....

there were probably 8-10 of us (TKE you know) at the table that were on tww and one random person....

so we were sort of talking in code and if tww had to be mentioned I just called it "the nerd web" or "that thing we don't mention"....

poopface comes in and says "oh God...I can't believe you people are talking about that here"...

I said "oh shut up...it's not like everybody in the room isn't on it...well except her" and i pointed at random person....

then she said "you're talking about the wolf web aren't you?"

i said, "yeah....we're all on there...how do you know about it?"

she started laughing and said "i've got you all beat.....i'm a MODERATOR "

i dont give a fuck, i like this place and im not scraed to talk about it in real life

i get a lot of funny and a lot of news on here and just about all of my really close friends are on here (friends way before tww though), and any who arent i usually get them to sign up aka poopface, ash_williams...

i love when people get all squirmy about it, omg dont say it out loud, shits funny, who cares
