Why does it seem people online will openly degrade anyone but out in public everone runs from confrontation? Why is there such social paranoia in public and too scared to socialize with strangers but will happily insult everyone online? If people are so lonely, why don’t they talk with people whil le they are out and exchange contact info? It seems more enjoyable talking with immigrants and better to avoid Canadians. I’m not bothered by dealing with someone talking stupid or if someone wants a friendly hug, it’s quite easy to have a good time with strangers and I have no concrns about giving my number to continue talking.

    Essentially yeah. If I call somebody an asshole to their face, they might punch me in mine :-)

    But there’s also an aspect that the internet is global, so troublemakers can be as well. The village idiots have a lot bigger village to interact in when online
