Message board posting
I’ve always felt that anonymous posting on the internet is one of the lowest forms of communication. Invariably negativity, hatred, insecurity make appearances, and next we see those who think they’ll show the anonymous commenters the error of their ways, and the great debate is on! So ridiculous.
Lately I’ve been posting. Sarcastic, subtle digs at the stupidity of it all. To entertain myself. But then I found myself hoping that someone, somewhere would appreciate my words, and that I’d receive some sort of accolades for my creativity and obvious superiority! Isn’t that sad?
It’s like I’m looking out a window, looking down on the world’s biggest dumpster, full of horrible, stinking trash. And I have this terrific piece of junk, so I throw it in, thinking it’s going to improve the dumpster in some way.
But of course it doesn’t. It becomes just another small piece of trash, and the dumpster still smells terrible.
I’d like to see a better way to react to the creations of others. Can’t we do this?
