Lately, I've noticed how mean people are online. No one has been mean to me in particular - that's not where this is coming from. But I have heard about and seen several instances were people hiding behind their computer screens with anonymous names just say these awful things to others or about others. I looooove the internet. Crazy love it. But sometimes there are some really nasty sides to it. I don't know if people actually feel this way and hide it in their real lives for fear of appearing mean, or if the internet exacerbates these negative emotions. I never change my personality when I'm on the internet. The things I say in my blog or on message boards, I'd say to someone in person. Thankfully, the vast majority of my flist is the same way. Or at least I think they are. I've never met anyone, so I wouldn't know for sure.
