Stupid self-referential posting. I feel lame titling a post the way this one is. Unfortunately that doesn't exculpate my lameness.

Anyway, this link--which has been around the internet already, anyway, so you don't need to click it--pretty much sums up a lot of what I've been hearing about lately. The end of the threat of physical retaliation to person or property basically makes us internets denizens far worse than our real-life counterparts. Whereas if one fucks up around a high-ranking female where I come from you get basically shit on, on the internets the worst that happens is you might get your IP blocked.

It's also one of the reasons I f-ing refuse to do online chat anymore.

Not true. There is a medium of exchange through technology (priviledges, monetary). 'better/worse' is only contingently supervienent on 'pleasure/pain'.

money, of course, being a root, is entirely medium independent.
