A big part of me being so serious (it's also me being "intellectual") comes from the fact that most things that irritate me are derived mostly from stupidity. I have this thing where I utterly refuse to contribute to irritating stupidity (playful trolling is different), which kinda leads me to being too serious.

I try my best not to show it and this is the first time I'm openly admitting it, but much like many other people get "ladder anxiety" I get "posting anxiety". Seriously, lol.

I know of this posting anxiety you speak of. Often times I'll reword something several times, only to retract my desire of posting at all. It's hard to find a balance between the relevance of the written/spoken word vs the desire to be heard.
