I remember, "back in the day", when in order to make use of the internet, you had to, well... not be an idiot.

Times have changed. Oh, how times have changed.

I won't go in to full detail, because I know most of what I would write would go unread or unappreciated.

I'm just going to respond to a certain individuals comments:

from here

"wow, i dont usually get the feeling that somoene is in the room with me when i see flashing pixels infront of me. Strange... what type computer do you use? maybe i should pick up one of those."

that was the point. even if it's just pixels, some people, namely ones with a strong grasp of the english language, are just the same to talk to on-line as they are in person (sometimes better - not having the person there can remove barriers otherwise imposed by social pressure). and, if they're people you already know, then you can tell where any sort of emotion/emphasis/sarcasm is.

here's the point.

here's your head.

note: point has gone over your head.

really, you turn on friend-only commenting, tell me if I comment again you'll report me (we've already crossed the barriers of sense) and then you continue to reply? good game, sir. you've certainly won the internet stupidity award, it's less shiney than the internet debate award you gave me.

whatever. you'll go on making posts in your journal so people can respond and make you feel better about your genetic teenage drama (tm) and I'll continue satirizing this entire culture.
