The Internet has two defining characteristics – lightening fast dissemination of the latest news, fads and junk, and a method for us all to discover how obnoxious our fellow humans can be. This last part is important – have you ever been to a forum or bulletin board, and noticed the huge numbers of jerks posting there? Then noticed you yourself were one of those jerks? Sure, you are a nice guy, you give money to the right charities, you don’t dress cats up like this, and you eat the right foods, but don’t kid yourself, you are a jerk on the Internet just like the rest of us.
