It is indeed funny. I'm waiting for the day someone has a heart attack while on KMC arguing about something stupid (like who is hotter, Orlando Bloom or Johnny Depp), they'll be in mid-sentance and their heart will explode because they forgot that all this place is is just words on our computer screen.

Who knows?
Sometimes people just have bad hair-days? 🙂
I have to agree with you here. There are people that posts things that you know they wouldn't have the guts to say to your face. I'll usually end up telling them how boring they are and ask if that's all they have to say.
The internet really does allow users hide behind a guise that they would not have in the real world.
Forums like KMC prove that humanity is not lost though. I think the 'net has been around long enough now that more and more people are finally being themselves. Its so much more appealing talking to real people rather than some weirdos 'internet persona'.
'internet persona' = someone afraid to be themselves...but for some reason never afraid to be abrasive, even if the topic is something as petty as 'Does Spider-Man wear boxers or briefs".
so its bad if people get angry on the internet?
it must also be bad if people get angry while arguing face to face 🙄
even if it is just words, sometimes the intent behind the post can stir up emotions.
if you can laugh at a post..why cant you get angry?
yeh i admit people can argue over the stupidest of things, but sometimes emotions can run high...and if people on here say that they havent even got slightly pissed off by a post then i think you are a lier!
