C'mon, Dwight, get with it. Insulting people is good clean fun, and it doesn't even require a condom. IMHO, people who vent on the Internet are probably a lot healthier than people who would insult someone to their face, and thus are probably willing or even hoping to engage in violence. Somewhat contrarily, they aren't as constipated emotionally as those who never say a bad word to anyone (or worse, save all this for their freinds and family.)

Moreover, we get a chance on the Internet to review our 'utterances' months or years later, and so be humbled. Myself, anyway.

Cheers,
Chaz
