Got no better one for the moment so it'll have to do!
I just think that everything online is so premeditated. You can sit there for 2 minutes *going to the bathroom* while you're secretly thinking of something witty yet flirty to say in response. Hell, this message was even a bit premeditated. Ventrilo / Skype are a bit more live-action so I've got less apprehensions with those, but be it typing on a forum, texting, etc.; I feel the same way.
I'd rather just have a natural conversation than one with someone who says the perfect thing all the time. I love people for their flaws, not the lack thereof.
I run a satire / humor blog site very The Onion-esque. It's like taking trolling to another level.

I'm actually much the same in person as I am online. For the most part, nonchalant about nearly everything and making light of most situations. Overall smartass and equal opportunity asshole. Whether online or in person, I WILL pounce you if you attempt to take a picture of me. >_> Bothered with confrontation both online and off.
Hell, the only time I'm "different" or "fake" is when I'm dealing with customers. Gotta put on that gleaming smile and wondrous personality! Even if the average tourist is dumber than the 89th palm tree they decided to photograph and seriously have no idea what hotel they're staying at, even though the keycard to enter their room has the name on it.
I can't believe I'm about to do this... *sigh*

Well, I suppose I'm not totally different in person than in-game. I've got an extremely high tolerance for terrible players - I've always gotten more joy from seeing a player successfully interrupt on Omnitron on the 10th attempt than stomping through the raid. Furthermore, one of the most rewarding things I've done in the past 12 months was volunteering with kids with special needs. Not looking to start a flame war (and it's one I'd take somewhat personal, so please try to avoid it ^^), but it was so rewarding getting to help these kids and give them a friend.
I'm also an obnoxious typer. I use big, bullshit, pretentious words like obnoxious, furthermore, and pretentious. I think I actually type words like that more often than I say them, so they do differentiate to a certain degree.
Differentiate? Shit, I need to work on this.
