Doing ok
My depression has settled down a bit from my last post. Still alone and unhappy but it's not keeping me down.I'm been rumaging through myspace.com and I'm not real impressed. The forums are filled with mean spirited people that don't take anything anyone posts serious. I found lots of threads where somone posted a questions and the entire first page of responses were people making fun of the question, the poster, sarcastic remarks or just assinine remarks.
This made me think of the nature of man and the internet. The internet gives people a layer of anonimity and lets them shed their normal layer of social politeness and self-censorship. The result is the true nature of people and what happens when left to their own means without authority. The internet is an anarchy on a world wide scale. Some people try to create order within their small spheres of influence but ultimately out-numbered against the unwashed masses.
Want to know what someone is really like? Put them on an internet forum and watch how they interact with other people.
