Imagining the real life looks of members.

[lludawg]

Do you ever imagine what members look like in real life? Sometimes I just associate a member with a certain look. For example, I was chatting with someone who was interested in rapping and was a DJ so I just assumed he was bald and had tattoos everywhere even though I had no idea what he actually looked like.

Yeah I do actually. Once I was pretty much spot on but I rarely get to see the others. Probably only around 20% upload a real photo in their avatar. I have a real photo of me uploaded and quite a few people said they didn't expect me to look how I did.

I have a nasty habit of thinking that avatars are accurate when people use pictures of people who are not famous. This has led to be getting confused before now.

My brain does it all day long, I can't control it, sometimes it's crazy how accurate can you be based only on cliches. Telling how does a person look by the way they talk is possible in my opinion, the way we write gives away traces of our personality and sometimes looks, nevertheless, some people master class actors behind the keyboard, so not a real science at all.

Haha! I do this was well, imagining what other members look like. Sometimes, a member does upload a real avatar of theirs and that's cool because I don't need to imagine how they look. But most of the time, members upload pictures of random images. So in those cases, I figure out how they look through their actions and the things they say. For instance, someone who is fond of debates and questioning other people's ideas, I'd imagine them as a guy with glasses or something like that.

The women that I have talked to always give me some clues about how they look though. Like, they would say that they are of Portuguese origin with a bit of this and that. From there, I'd imagine how they would look. It's fun because I know they don't look exactly like that. I think when I get to see them, I won't even know it's them.

As for me, I bet no one knows how exactly I look. Haha! I don't have the courage to upload a real picture of me...Yet!
