People on the DAMN internet....need to realize...that REAL life is still going on....this ain't a fantasy world....I hope some people are sickened and haunted for the rest of their life for typing what they did.....wake up people and enjoy life...dumb asses!

With all due respect you gotta question the man's decision to go into an insult chatroom set up for people to ridicule one another ... did he do so with an expectation of compassion? If so he's a dummy as well.

Very sad but I'm not surprised really. The internet is a very different place than it used to be, 8-10 years ago we kept our real identities to ourselves and not expose every mundane little detail about our personal life on myspace like many people do today.

And FamousJames I'm appalled by it all like you are but as you said this isn't a fantasy world but lots of internet users treat it as such.
