       Your personality!

       How do you act to your public and personal life?
       I try to smile at everyone to boost everyones happiness
       including my own.  All friends I've acquired I was smiling.
       Even on WC I would smile while typing to all of you when I was
       engaged in friendly conversation.

       Other people have told me they purposely frown for sympathy of
       others, and others make an angry face to intimidate others.
       Also how do you act with yourself?  When you're playing a game
       do you get mad?  If so what for?  Think of the game like a math
       problem.  You can't solve it unless you learn how to so why not
       accept the humility that comes with defeat?
       What's your take on how you act?

       I do the same thing, I smile even when typing because for some
       reason I always think of something personally funny when I type
       to someone.
       I.e. I'm typing this and I'm thinking 'hah now I'm posting in
       one of those Tolli topics, doh'. For that reason I'm pretty much
       permanently smiling at irony, sarcasm and my own thoughts.
       Besides that, I sigh a lot because I find a lot of people very
       tiring, but I don't let that on much.

       lol, this was good ^^
       yeee theory is to not force anything, just express whatever
       feelings you have. walking around with a forced smile all day is
       called "the american smile", with their bleached teeth from
       hell. it's seethrough and makes you look freakens. it might make
       people percieve you as someone who wants to appear friendly tho
       (with emphasis on "wants to appear" :D), but I think most people
       have an easy time distinguishing a "genuine smile" from a
       "forced" one.
       i prefer people who only bring genuine smiles. REAL SH1T!

       Haha ^^
       The point is to make the forced smile become the genuine one.
       When you smile at someone it can cause them to smile too by
       social pressure, and smiling releases chemicals in the body to
       help them maintain the feeling of smiling.
       Frowning and tension of the face in an angry fashion also
       spreads through the public like wildfire, and those expressions
       bring on negative emotions while smiling brings positive ones.
       Do you disagree that people should smile to help others maintain
       positive emotions?  Positive emotions help others make better
       decisions in life.

       Why don't you act by your emotions, that is what makes sense...
       If you feel happy, be happy. If you feel sad your attitude is
       going to be what? Sad.

       I act by my emotions.  I am happy when others are happy.

       Why would you care about anyone but yourself? When the majority
       doesn't care about you.

       It's called Altruism, it's a style of life. Best part of sex =
       when girl is having an orgasm, that's the hottest imo. It's the
       same thing, if you see that others are happy, or that you make
       others happy, that brings satisfaction to yourself. That's what
       I have anyways.
       Altruism = 'Altruism or selflessness is the principle or
       practice of concern for the welfare of others.'

       isn't that selfishness though? when the best part about sex is
       based on what's hottest to you (same as everyone you don't
       consider altruistic), or when you love seeing others happy
       because it bring you satisfaction (same as everyone who gets
       satisfaction from seing people get annoyed/sad/hurt).
       it just happens that these selfish acts of yours also bring joy
       to others (the consequenses could have been entirely different
       with the same motivation). the motivation is based on what
       brings you happiness/satisfaction first and foremost, which is
       the definition of selfish?
       it's sort of like a rich man throwing out coins on the street
       cus he thinks the coins are annoying in his pocket, and a
       homeless man happens to pick the coins up later. selfish or
       altruistic?
       i know shoop is gonna bring come disgusting comebacks on this
       topic from bnet experience :D waiting for it!

       It depends on the mindset you have. If you think you should do
       good for people, and coincidentally you also get
       satisfaction/gratitude/happiness from it, then it's altruism. If
       you do good with the main goal of getting that satisfaction then
       it's selfishness.
       But yea, there's a very thin line between Altruism and
       Selfishness like that.
