Is it just me, or... - Comments

I only use youtube to watch...Only Fools And Horses mainly lol. It's funny, online wars. They're a strange creation of our times because there's not really been anything like that before, has there? Sad really, isn't it? Aeons ago, people were inventing useful stuff like phones and frisbees and fridges and medicine. In our time, we made a forum where people can bicker about stupid, menial toss and not worry about having to face consequences for being rude or inappropriate. Maybe we've done good stuff as well but I know I wouldn't miss online fights, no matter how mildly entertaining they can be sometimes.
Good post. Look forward to reading your blogs again!

Meh. I'll voice my opinion either way. And if someone berates me for it, nine times out of ten they're the idiot because I don't publicize my opinions on something unless I have a lot of research and solid reason behind why I stand here I do. Others have the right to disagree, but if you're just going to get all OMG UR RONG UR SUCH AN IDDIOT WTF U SHUD GO DIE NAO, and have no reason whatsoever for having a contrary opinion...well, it's not much of a battle of wit.

I guess, but I mean, why voice an opinion (that won't change the world) if you're going to get death threats from random strangers who have nothing better to do with their lives. It seems like too much work and too much danger to me xD Once more, I totally agree. Although, I'd prefer someone make an ass of themself online than in public.

Well, freedom of speech technically gives them the RIGHT to flame you 27 times. The point is, just because you CAN do something...doesn't mean you SHOULD. Of COURSE they have the right to make asses of themselves online. That doesn't mean it's a good idea, and it doesn't mean I don't hope like hell that they get electrocuted because of a random malfunction of their computer next time they touch their keyboard.

Dude. I agree 100%. I had a Youtube account once, made the mistake of posting a nuetral comment on a music video of a very popular band with correct grammar and a four syllable word in it, and got totally flamed by twenty-seven people. So much for freedom of speech...
