Post by **_Imwashingmypirate** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 11:24 am

Hey I googled my self once. I actually found myself. How cool is that? :P

Ha I found loads.

I didn't write this did I? I guess I just know where to look. I have way too much stuff on google.

Geez...This has me pegged. LOL

You Are An Attention Seeker

You're only human, so you can't help but want a little attention every now and then.
You love the spotlight, but only when it's well deserved. You'd hate to be known for the wrong thing.
And you also don't mind sharing the spotlight. You can easily give someone else credit or a complement.
You know there's enough attention to go around, and it makes you happy when your friends shine.

You come across as: Friendly and interesting

People may wrongly think you're: A little more modest than you actually are!

I wish I could google myself. Unfortunately, there's a rather famous doctor with the same name as me... Coincidence? Maybe not.

Try your real name steuss. I can google, Imwashingmypirate, washingmypirate and two combinations of my name to find things written by myself. I am just going to check them out in a bit. One forum I only went on once or twice, so I'd be intrigued to see what has been replied.

I was actually refering to my real name. For the most part, I have a monopoly on "Doctor Steuss."

Ahh cool. I put my real name with a combination of numbers to find me. But with just my name, there'd be loads.

I think the only really needy attention whores on any given forum are the ones that actually use their real name. I mean, don't these people have any shame?

You seem to be suggesting that the way to avoid shame is to post anonymously. Given the kinds of shameful things you write, I can see your point. But, there is no call for you to project this onto all anonymous posters, and certainly not those who post under their real names. ;-)

Willfully misunderstanding now, Wade? Been reading a lot of charity lately?

I'd be interested in you citing an example of something I've written that you think is shameful.

I like posting under my real name, but then I like when other people do, too. It makes me feel like I really know them.
