Migraine's hitting me pretty hard right now due to all that's been flooding my mind, so I haven't been able to take a look at this thread again for a while. I'm currently in the process of getting myself something to eat; hopefully I'll feel a little better after that.

"Sticks up their asses"? Lol, no wonder they're so bloody bitchy; that sounds uncomfortable as hell.

Also, I slightly updated my post in the thread you put up. Something was missing and it was irking me.

Honestly, I know that feeling all too well; even people in my circle often find me intimidating and those who talk with my over voice chat often have a difficult time getting into a more heated discussion with me or saying something they think might piss me off due to how "unapproachable" I can supposedly come across; I guess the fact that I have very extremes likes and dislikes and tend to be rather touchy doesn't help that matter, but I really do prefer it when people are forthright with me.

Like I keep saying, occasionally differences aside (seemingly from our histories and culture, from what we can tell) the two of us are really similar. I'm a bit too out of it right now to go into the details of each thing you've said, but I'm definitely too much of a realist to always be optimistic of things around me or the people I meet (I don't inherently consider myself a pessimist though, either; I did say [i]realist[/i] after all), I really don't trust people at all, and overall I'm a much heavier and much more serious and intense person than my initial cocky and composed atmosphere likely gives off.

On the other hand, I actually [i]don't[/i] relate to your problem concerning your voice; to the best of my knowledge my voice is distinctively masculine sounding, even if it isn't as deep as it apparently sounds to me (I don't know why but most people's voices sound deeper to themselves than to other people). I actually don't have a problem with my full name; in fact I think it sounds pretty badass, but I'm not too fond of the nickname people used for me throughout most of my past (a few people still use it, mostly out of habit). I don't mind using Discord instead of Skype, but my phone (what I use for voice chat) currently doesn't have an app for it and I don't want to use it on my PC for a multitude of reasons.

As for the statement you made involving freedom; I don't recall the specifics of the discussion, but I'm pretty sick myself right now (or at least sleep deprived; alongside my usual bad health in general that probably is never going away) so I might simply be having trouble recalling the specific talk we had.

(Take your time with the recovery; like I said, my health is [i]always[/i] bad and I know how much stress ruins people. No pressure.)

You're Australian [i]too[/i], eh?
