Is this where I can get my Mudcat Personna analyzed, or am I in the wrong thread?


For you, amigo, just 'cuz it's you, we'll do a deal. I'll analyze your persona for you, and you can bite my ass and swallow the cowboy hat which cost me seven years!!

While Lonesome presents the exterior image in his posts of a sensitive, brilliant, articulate, poetic, colorful, insightful author who somehow manages to write the best fiction on the 'Cat, with deep characterization and fast-moving plots and clever turns of event and beautifully crafted phrases, the sad truth is, the man is a goddam liar who has never done any of those things. In real life he stammers and blushes if you say "Good morning" and couldn't write a complete sentence if his life depended on it. He gets turned on by watching his Cheerios, and sleeps with a mauve stuffed rabbit, wears rubber shoes and gets by asking strangers for spare change at the local Home Depot, in gasping, broken phrases he somehow manages to blurt out.

You might well ask how he manages to create such a fraudulent persona, and indeed it is a good question, worthy of a sociological thesis. The short answer is, on the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.
