The power of words · 11:25am Oct 27th, 2014
Let's play a little experiment with words. Suppose you've never met me before, and I come onto some social media site and choose one of the following options to describe myself. What image would each description conjure in your mind, and how would they differ?
1. I'm a bad boy.
2. I'm a villain
3. I'm a sinner.
4. I'm naughty.
5. I'm not a good person.
This would all depend on context and the person who's viewing it but nowadays (for me anyways) those that say any of those except 3 could be a troll.
That number 3 tells me that perhaps someone could be depressed but of course since there are tone of voices, there's no concrete way to tell save for continuous conversation.
Number 3 just strikes me as someone who is extremely self conscious

Personally I would claim number 3 as being true for myself, though hopefully deny the other four.
