Well, couldn't really think in a way to express it accurately in the title, but it's about keeping your words to yourself, not exactly as in secrets, but stuff you want to say but you don't.

As for me, I do it sometimes, oftenly I think if I should say it or not and just end up not telling 🤣 . Yeah, I wonder why couldn't I keep my mouth shut sometimes too 🤣

I have the tendency to be sarcastic when I'm holding a grudge or extremely pissed at somebody.. 😛

I withhold my comments every single hour of my life. (In RL, anyway.)

I occasionally say stuff without meaning to, but its generally just petty/mean comments that don't really matter all that much in my scheme of things, but would be better off unsaid.

I usually stay quiet but there are a bunch of times where I felt should've just kept my big mouth shut.

I say what I think, even if I don't plan to.
People tend to get hurt, but it is their fault
for taking me seriously.

It depends on the situation as well as to whom I'm speaking. If it is someone who knows me well, I'll say whatever I choose, since they know how to take it. If it's someone who doesn't, then I either pick my words a little more carefully to get my point across or just refrain from saying anything at all.

No, because I like seeing people cry...jk.
Well it depends on the situation and who I'm talking to. If it's someone that knows me well and knows not to take my words too seriously or to heart then yeah I tell them what's on my mind.

But it's annoying when people ask you, "What do you really think?" and once you respond with the truth they get mad. >:-(
Which is why I always pick my words carefully, unless I'm really pissed, if so it's best to take cover.

Quoting my sig:

Quote from Mark Twain

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

It depends on whether or not I care about looking like a fool or not. Around my friends, family, and select peers I'm comfortable with, I'll talk when I feel the urge. Not much thinking necessary. Around others, I'll usually think over what I want to say before saying it.

I have the bad habit of saying what I think even when I know it is socially unacceptable to do so or will probably hurt others. I have sense enough to tone down in public places or in front of strangers but with my friends it's no holds barred. I have a grudge against political correctness so this is my mini-rebellion I guess. Also sometimes I have no concept of when I've gone too far, I lack the social skills to judge such things at times but I rarely, if ever, feel regret for my words. I apologise more because it's expected of me than because I geniunely feel sorry. I guess people are more comfortable with a lie than a few homes truths. Also I find people's reactions interesting to judge and insulting them is a great way to purge unneccessary acquaintances from true friends without the annoying awkward conversation. I tend to be more brutal when I'm upset or pissed but then I stop using coloquial terms for the sake of easy understanding and slip into my more natural obscure vocabulary. There's something highly satisfying about insulting people when they have no idea what your saying or using longer words. I also like to chuck in a few home truths when conversation is getting boring or when people start to make a few too many false assumptions on my character. I don't like people thinking they know me when they don't so I like to keep them on their toes. I sound like a total bitch, lol. I can be a good friend though, if you pass all my tests.

Seems subtlety is not your thing, there is no need to insult people to winnow wheat from chaff.

You would be smart to watch out for those tests though, they might render you unreachable.

You concern is noted and appreciated but it isn't a lack a sublty but more a lack of caring, not that I class myself as a subtle person anyway, lol. There are better ways to get rid of people I know but it takes so much effort and it usually ends up worse in the long run. I find a mixture of insult and indifference is best. I designed to tests for exactly that purpose, to ensure only a select few would ever get close to me. I have 4 very close friends right now and then lots of mates as it were, that is plenty. I got by during my hardest years with only one close friend so having 4 is luxury to me. I guess I have isues but I'm happy so surely that is all that matters.

I don't know whether your first sentence is a sarcasm or not but my intuition tells me it can very well be one. Never mind anyway, I find sarcasms very useful when appropriate times arise. 😎

Oh, I don't have many friends either (1 close friend), I would rather be alone than with someone I dislike. It's just that I do have the kind of "tests" you've got and they can be sometimes... fruitlessly hurtful toward others. I don't insult people though, it's more insidious.

I really dont talk with that many people that much ... but i make it a habit of keeping my mouth shut .. that way i dont get any problems with other people and they leave me alone .. though i do speak my mind ( and its rarely pretty when i do ) if something really bugs me or really pisses me off ...
