The Priest God Never Paid
What is it with the internet population? Why are the vast majority of internet people such insufferable assholes? Everyone whines and complains about every little thing and takes any small opportunity to jump down someone's throat. I never really cared or noticed when I was younger, but I just can't understand why there's so much hate and cruelty in the minds of so many people.
Here's a simple test: go to any forum on the internet, start a thread about how you are new and don't know what's going on, and I guarantee you will be made fun of.
I've been a part of multiple internet communities since I was young so I never really questioned it, but it's just really sad how people get a sense of superiority and pride from bashing people on the internet. I wonder if the same feelings carry over to their every day interactions. Could the biggest internet trolls be the biggest douche bags in real life? Probably. A better question is what's wrong with them psychologically that gives them so much satisfaction from being a complete asshole? Is that real human nature? If people had no consequences for their actions in real life like they did on the internet, would they be the huge piles of shit that they are on the net? Too bad I'm not going into psychology, because this is a pretty good question.
