serious vs. silly ?? ever have a problem with either ??

[frenchy]

ok most of you in this group know me and if its one thing that you know its that sometimes i'm pretty silly and other times i can be sensitive and serious .. but sometimes i really don't plan it all that well .. sometimes that little imp in me just comes out and i think gee maybe i shouldnta said this or that .. and then i think aww they know i'm just kiddin .. they should know by now .. if i can get someone to smile as opposed to frown i'll try for the smile .. but then sometimes there are some things that really are serious so that calls for my serious side .. but every now and then i'll see humor in things that other people don't .. i'm just wonderin do any of you guys feel like that too from time to time .. you'll say somethin and then think eeeee.. mighta just pissed on somebodys leg there .. not on purpose but its wet just the same .. so am i the only one ?? come on fess up ..

Does sarcasm count as "silly"?  If so, then I'm guilty as charged.  I do find irony in things. If I feel I'm being fed a line I'm not in sync with..... in most cases, I feel it's easier to choose to find the humor and let loose my sarcastic side.  Sometimes, it's taken the wrong way, but it's usually taken with a grain of salt.  It takes a lot to push my buttons.  I choose to laugh it off .......most of the time.  If I feel strongly enough about something that my sarcasm could get too biting.........I just ignore the post and move on.

I'm a little bit serious and alot silly. I try not to attack anyone or to hurt anyone's feelings. Some people are appalled by my stories and comments and that's usually o.k. with me....though sometimes I've regretted what I've posted, not often.

I actually do censor myself. I did so recently after a comment by Cresto......I wrote a reply that in most circumstaces would have been funny, but in rereading what she said about a 'flashing' incidents effect on her I did not post the comment.........my mind and mouth work pretty much simultaniously.......this get's me in more trouble in the 3D world where I can't delete before posting.

I love having an audience.

OMG, YES!! AND..I also have foot in mouth syndrome and it is a size 10 foot!! One of my most awkward moments was THIS week. I currently live with an old couple 5 days a week. I go home Saturday morning... The old man died a few hours before I was supposed to go home so I stayed. I can be very outgoing sometimes (even MOST of the time)  but I often resort to my VERY SHY childhood and sometimes I get tongue tied and say really dumb things, as a result. ONE of the DUMBEST things I said was to one of the family members, "I was sorry to HEAR about your grandpa."  HELLO???!! I didnt "hear" about it, i was  HERE the moment he died!! Actually, UGHHHH I said it twice i think. STUPID!!  My only defense is my brain was SO overloaded. ONE THING was after he died, I was NOT able to reach ANY of the family so I had to hang out with the EMT's and police plus family friends for half the day until I COULD. (officials are NOT allowed to leave a body "alone") The fact is, I could have called the family ANY TIME of the day or night on ANY GIVEN DAY of the year and they would have been IMMEDIATELY available. It just so happened it was "spring break" and the son and family were on a plane coming HOME from vacation and the daughter and family were IN a wedding and "out of range". It was a very odd position to be in...to NOT be family but included as if I was though i just felt so "OUT OF PLACE".....
