My reason for being bitter is that venkman suffers from an abnormally small penis. He seems like such a capital fellow otherwise!

So, on behalf of Dear venkman, I shake my fist skyward and angrily beseech a remote and cruel deity:

"Why, God, why? Why venkman?" :brokenheart: :(

I too am cursed with a small penis.
But I'm mostly angry that its not touching any girls. Thats the real reason.
Of course, if I were getting laid, you guys would never see me.
I think thats why ATOT is angry. The only reason we're here is we arent getting any sex. The happy ones dont post.

The internet in general makes people angry and bitter. You can only get tricked by tinyurls for goatse, rickrolls, lemon party and the like before you go on a shooting rampage.

i think it's more that people can HIDE behind the internet and be flaming douchebags whereas in real life they cannot do this to people because they are more accountable.

it's like getting away with playing with fire with less of a burn.

It's REALLY frustrating being ridiculously brilliant. :(

I'm not so sure about that. have you read some of the posts on this forum?

Maybe the internet lets people release who they really are instead of having to hide behind a civil mask in real life? ;)

Here we have a shining example of the remaining 99%. He quoted, bolded, and replied to one of my posts. Asking him if he's read my posts is kinda... well, dumb ;)

I see young college aged hot women all around. I was driving my truck and saw this young attractive girl with a low cut shirt and the guy next to her fondle her breasts. I masterbate. Frequently.

I'm bitter because, I've had all the sweetness sucked out of me...:p


Sometimes, what people take for bitterness is just frustration at the stupidity of the post.

Look at the self-hating emo crap Trident usually posts. His life seems to be so miserable, it's a fucking miracle he hasn't crashed his bicycle into the back of his mommy's car in a feeble attempt to end it all...

I personally don't mind the bile that occasionally gets spilled here. We all need to vent from time to time in a forum where we can't get fired, can't get bitched at by a family member or spouse, and won't get our asses kicked for saying unpleasant things...

(when is someone gonna invent the "Internet Punch," where you can send it to a deserving individual, they click on "Open Me," and the fist comes out of the screen and cleans their clock?"

Come on youse geeks...you have a very deserving challenge in front of you....:D
