What you see is what you get

What you see is what you get can be one of the realest thing that comes out of a person’s mouth these days but only if you ask the right questions.  Well some people would say that is giving too much information when you do not really know the person yet and I would say you are right to a certain degree about that but then you might want to tell the person you are talking to and getting to know about your alter ego before they find out by surprise.  Now you look confused when they do not want to talk to you no more because they met batman when you were trying to hang from the ceiling fan, WHAT WAS THAT.  Or let them know you are a thrill seeker.  They were thinking you were being romantic one evening by going on a helicopter ride but you forgot to tell them until they were getting in the helicopter that you are going to be jumping out of the helicopter.  Now you are mad because they smacked you upside your head before running to their car.  Or let them know you like to wear wigs and your hair is really short.  Now you are mad because when you open your door, he looked at you and ran to his car because you did not tell him you look like Grace Jones without your wigs.   And what happens when what they tell you, you don’t take them seriously?  And how could you take them seriously?  If someone told you that they are a nudist and only wear clothes to work or on a date, would you believe them or wait until they answer their front door in nothing but slippers and glasses.  Or they don’t believe in deodorant, perfume or soap.  Now you’re trying to figure out who smells like hot garbage in the restaurant.

There are many scenarios with this one both good and bad.  The main reason for this is to keep it real.  A lot of people think they have to put on a fake personality or something they do not normally do or leave out certain details for others to like them.  Be yourself, crazy or not because that all you know how to be.  Follow me on Twitter @wlhoward_psa.  Until next time, stay cool
