Search Results: negative attention

If you take a jaunt over to any YouTube comment section (or just stick around on GAG long enough) you'll see spiteful, belittling, negative comments being hurled around by sad people with low self-esteem (or too much self-esteem depending on who you ask). These comments are generally designed to either demonstrate their attention-whoredness, inflame the audience or attack the user who posted their video/question/opinion, etc

You all know the comments I'm referring to.
'Wow, he's so f*cking fat. Get off the couch and fetch yourself another bag of chips, lardass.'

'Ugly as f*ck.'

'All that makeup just makes her look like a slut.'

'No offense, but you really need to <insert highly-offensive negative implication here>'

There's generally 2 schools of thought on the people making these comments:

1) Anonymity brings out the worst in people: They're actually a really nice/misunderstood person in real life. It's just on the internet they're an asshole. Kind of like driving a car & how some people roadrage.

2) Anonymity helps show a person's true colors: It's always been there. Deep down, they're really assholes; it's just now showing because they don't have to worry about consequences.

Which side of the fence do you sit on?

We had a friendly session with our classmates recently. We had to write down each others negative atttibutes on pieces of papers and paste on each other's backs. Anonimously. They said I'm clumsy, anxious, loves to be a loner, attention seeker, and talkative. Some of them I really question their judgements. Do guys love girls like me in real life? I think I'm clumsy but the rest aren't suited to myself since I know myself better than anyone else. Do guys like girls like me? I'm insecure and I'm afraid of the world. Am I normal and do guys like girls like me?
