Wank Sniffing
A short post to ask a largely rhetorical question.
Why is it that some people have an uncanny ability to sniff out controversy on the Internet? Why are they often people who'll lay low for weeks or months on end, then -- voila! -- pop up as soon as they see an opportunity to add fuel to a flame? Why do they seem to thrive on, even live for craziness, for any chance to contribute to a pile-on, or voice their self-righteous indignation, or don a mantle of superiority?
I've seen a lot of this. Am I the only one who has?

Because they're pathetic and cowardly bullying little creeps who need a life and who can only garner attention by anonymously annoying the hell out of others? And because they're always certain to find and get a rise out of several earnest Irmas, who will take them seriously and politely and with logical arguments attempt to point out the error of their ways, before finally giving up in tears?

A lot of them aren't anonymous, though. They're proud to be this way, because they never doubt how right they are!
I like your picture! I usually bail on reading conversations that've flamed up like that. I am so tired of that kind of behavior.
