Hate is a strong word. But in this situation it is totally necessary. This is meant for humor, but this is serious, these things get on my nerves. More than me hating them, they make me go wtf. Also, I don't believe in hating people... but I do believe in being irked by some of the stupid things they do.

Internet Trolls

Ok now. It is understandable why some people feel the need to go onto forums or comment on videos, etc. stating their extreme disgust for something. Some examples that warrant these flames are anything related to the Ku Klux Klan or Westboro Baptist Church, tragic events like hurricanes or earthquakes where the disgust is more sadness and sympathy, or anything touched by Rebecca Black.

That. Is. It.

What I (and everyone else in the world) hates the most is when you're looking at something you really like and think is the bee's knees. You're reading other fans' appreciation and having a gay ol' time until some dick with a screenname like "xXxqueef_tits_mcgee1998xXx"decides to leave a comment that is completely intended just to aggravate people.

Now don't even pretend you haven't come across this screenname before. It is out there... I bet.

But let us create a hypothetical situation. Say you really like an adventure video game called the Legend of Floppyface. You want to buy this cool t-shirt with Floppy on it and are reading some people's comments about why they love Floppyface. You know it is a waste of time to be reading other people's appreciation of the game instead of playing yourself, but dammit, you just feel good.

floppyfan2179 - "OMG remember when Floppy was encased in that amber-looking thing and you found out she was actually a Russian man?"

harrisonisonaforum23 - "AHHH that was the best! I had no idea! And then she... he came out of the amber and defeated the boss!!!!!"

i_lessthanthree_icarly2001 - "rember wen dis gayme wuz only playd by queers n fags n babehs. CALL OF DUTY noobfags!!!!!!!1!!!"

Call of Duty my ass.

Again, don't pretend you have not seen this scenario occur before. Some ten-year old is sitting at his grandma's computer right now trying to get past the parental controls to watch Japanese porn and is frustrated so he's taking it out on your forum!

ARGH! It is so infuriating.

But at least it gets me off of the computer because I don't want to look at it anymore. I then go and look at a different screen and play video games for an extended number of hours.

I'm so glad I live in the 21st century.

Much love!

P.S. Sometimes I don't look at screens. I read books and go on walks and pet dogs n shit. Don't judge me... (Whenever someone says 'Don't judge me...' they're judging themselves. I'll write a post about that.)

P.P.S. Don't forget the polls at the bottom of the page!!!!
