Real Life, The Internet, And Everywhere In Between Is Full Of…
October 18, 2009
Real Life, The Internet and Everywhere In Between (TM) is full of horrible, horrible people. There is no escaping. In real life we have chavs, idiots, and drunks. Online we have trolls, teenagers and fanboys. There is now no society where we can be free from pretentious morons. Not a single shred. Everything is ruined by someone with too much time on their hands.
In real life, we’re constantly surrounded by jerks. All kinds of jerks. Jerks who are too lazy and stupid to get jobs, jerks who are too inconsiderate to care about other people, jerks who are too self absorbed to be conscientious towards other people. Online we are constantly surrounded by jerks, too. We have jerks that are hateful towards anyone and everyone, jerks who like to destroy, and jerks who are one of the jerks listed above but in digital form. Jerks jerks jerks jerks jerks. Where is the humanity? Where is the freedom?
Well, I can explain where it’s gone. Here’s my theory: Popularity gave people in the real world a false sense of importance and grandiosity… So the people who weren’t popular turned to the internet, where they became popular amongst their friends online. This gave the unpopular people a false sense of importance and grandiosity. Then, when the real life popular people joined the internet, they mixed with other popular people who then became even more pretentious and self-loving. Now we’re faced with a garble of people who are infatuated with their egos. Great. Because of this, those of us still sane are trapped in a jar made of jerkness, which is impossible to escape from until everyone who lacks the best intentions is shot. What a miserable existence for us all.

interesting ramble I am going to spend tomorrow reading the rest of your blog.
Thank you :)
Being surrounded by Jerks makes me feel better about myself! Or does that then make me ‘one of them’? lol
I guess that, like me, that makes you one of those jerks that prides themselves on not being a jerk :P
