Like that's really gonna dig deep. lol. Saying someone doesn't get girls sounds more effective. Nerds gonna nerd I guess
 
It's because everyone who can post on this board or, especially, works in IT thinks they're some kind of f&%$ing genius.
 
Because, if I call you stupid I don't get an infraction. If I were to find some deeply personal information about you and proceed to 'sick burn' you on it, I would.
 
It's not in insult, it's informative. E.g., would a blind person ever realize they were missing one of their senses if no one told them? Consider it a service to some posters... maybe the first time they're called an idiot, they might dismiss it as a simple insult. But, after 90 or 100 times, you might expect that mayyyybe, there's something to it. I know that if a few respected posters said that my opinion about a particular point of view I was espousing was "stupid," I might reconsider it. E.g., "I don't believe in vaccines, natural immunity is better." 7 or 800 "you're an idiot"s later, you would think it would sink in.

Now, about not realizing this, OP. . .

Because lot of people come here specifically to make a point (i.e. try to show off their intellectual prowess).

Saying you get no ladies is pure speculation, which even the target of the insult knows. You haven't seen what his/her boomstick has done -- or have you?
 
Because having social (or any other kind of) intelligence isn't required in order to insult others' intelligence - all that's needed is proper spellling and to make good grammar.

Because the person making said insult probably lacks intellect as well. You only need to pay a visit to P&N to see what happens when people on both sides of discussions lack brainpower.
