Society is strange, well, Society is fine- it's the people that are strange.

Recently, I've noticed a certain trend in people. I was walking my dogs today, when I passed a group of kids messing around with another kid. He obviously didn't like the kids, and they were being pretty nasty, insulting him and so on. Th 'leader' of their little group started to insult the boy, and then the rest of the group followed afterwards, chipping in with smaller insults. Just like sheep.


Another example is on these very forums. Take El Blokey for example. He'll engage in an argument about something, taking off a big chunk and picking it apart bit by bit. Then other users arrive and start nibbling at the bits EB left out. Just like a pack of wild dogs.

What I'm trying to say is, why are people so spineless? Can't they stick up for themselves, or perhaps hold their own arguments?

Thins should change.

It's not that I don't like them, it's just I find it annoying. Like they feel they should try and carry on someone else's aregument to try and make them look cool.

It irks me.

I can understand what your saying about the kid, that stuff is bs. But i don't think you should be worried about it happening on a forum, if you don't like someone here its so easy to avoid them. If they post something in your topic, ignore them. If they're persistant, report them. Easy.

SR are like those teachers that used to wander around the playground at playtime. Except, they're more cruel to us.
