I was thinking about this. It takes almost no energy to get the 4chan Warriors up in arms. If you really had legit beef with someone, how easy would it be to make sure they are the mob next target?
Or more sinister, let's say you're on the opposite side of the fence and want to "frame" someone that actually did nothing wrong.
All it takes is a video purportedly showing the person doing something stupid, and submitting it to YouTube, with a few well placed links to Reddit and 4chan, and voila -at a minimum that person is no longer working, on national news, and will no longer be able to practice their profession that they have worked/studied years for. Then the person gets harassed every time they try to change address, phone number, etc. Finally they get to try and quash any false allegations spread to your professional ethics board.
Internets you scary.

Losers that welsh on bets don't get to judge others.

She got shitfaced and acted like an a-hole. I would say 990% of people have been there. Luckily for most, they are around friends so they can snatch their arse and take them home before it could escalate.

She's supposed to be doing spirit fingers in her apology interview? Geez, you don't know how to work the media bro

How does Winston have anything to do with this? Again, apples and oranges. I hope I don't have to explain why these two situations are different.

I've hung out with a lot of drunk, drugged out assholes. I have never in my life seen anyone act like that. Including idiots getting into fights.

I think your blind person readout machine said the wrong thing. That was a question

LSU Pizza Girl got off easy. If social justice was around back in 2010, she'd be doomed.

Again, comparing a college kid's actions to a medical doctor is absurd. Winston was also punished, charged with a crime, and roasted in the media.

To be fair it seems Florida residents have a certain inclination to shoot things, fight people, and generally act like assholes.
Is that generally how your knuckles got that way?
