Oops, I forgot to pitch in my own personal thoughts on this. I think it's surreal and thought provoking. It makes us question what we confirm as truths, facts, and inventions. There is definitely truth in there somewhere in how LonelyGirl15 presented herself to the world, just as there is truth to how others present themselves. Not just on the internet, but in the real world as well. What do you show? What do you not show? What is worth revealing and why? Is it to your best advantage to be 100% honest about yourself, your identity, or are parts of you best left hidden or at the very best, obscured?
