Let's recall what our own dear Inflatable had to say on these matters so recently in his self-proclaimed "sanctimonious rant" while drunk and on "a lot of Ritalin."
quote:
Plus, it seems like the cool thing to do on the internet these days is just to shit-talk or make retarded YTMND-esque photoshops of whoever's the latest celebrity to bite it... Really mature. If I wasn't so addicted to the fucking internet, I would hate it so much.
Gosh! Fuck us for pointing out the slight irony here, huh?
quote:
because they realize there's no consequence to what they say or what they do. When you have nobody to answer to, all your inhibitions go out the window and you can be the most insensitive piece of shit you want.
I think you meant to write that in the first person.
quote:
I fully realize this comes off as preachy, sanctimonious and yes, hypocritical, cuz I too am guilty of doing off-color shit that outside the realm of the internet would be seen as tasteless. I've said shit here, including in this thread about crabby's kid that I would NEVER in a million years say to anyone in public.
You're fucking right you wouldn't. Right now I dearly wish I could ask you in person to clarify to me exactly what you just wrote about Ivy. I would personally enjoy that on a deeply visceral level.
quote:
and the other extreme is the asshole-factor on the internet where I'll run across pricks photoshopping dead people on the very day they died.
Gosh, they're such pricks, are they?
quote:
There's gotta be some common ground. Unfortunately I think the comforting anonymity of that monitor you're staring at right now means you'll never find it.
Yeah, comforting anonymity. You should know. Your little "sanctimonious rant" was all about yourself.
