Question
When you talk about someone on here to someone who doesn't know you frequent an online forum, do you start the sentence with:
"Yeah, my friend from [Northern Minnesota, KC, Florida, Texas, Jersey, Boston, etc.]..." or "Yeah, my friend who is a [lawyer, HR professional, university teacher, special ed teacher, etc.]..." without letting on that you may or may not have ever met this individual in person?
I think I sound so much more impressive knowing lawyers and people from other parts of the country personally.

Re: Question
LOL!
It depends who I'm talking to. Eric knows about you guys. When I talk about people from other places that my mother hasn't already heard of (like from college), she'll ask, "Is this someone you met on the computer?" With other people, if I care to or it's relevant, I may explain the knot/nest thing. And with some, I'll just say "a friend who's a..." if it's relevant or "a friend in..." whatever state. Or just "a friend from online."
People know I'm a big geek, so no one blinks at me for having friends online. Hell, I started online in 1992, and stayed one night of our honeymoon at an online friend's apartment in Cork, so if they're not used to it by now, they don't really know me.
