Sometimes I read the comments on articles. Not often, mind you. Because I can't stand the stupid and, if you haven't noticed, there is a lot of stupid out there. Take a look at the comment section on Facebook or on news columns and you will always see some sexist, racist, homophobic doofuses spouting off their sexist, racist, homophobic beliefs. And well, I simply don't have any room for these types of people in my life. Even more, it is frustrating when I see how accepted these idiotic ideologies are.
The thing is, you can't change stupid. They don't want to learn and grow and be better people.
Another reason I don't delve into the comment section on YouTube or Facebook is because improper grammar and net speak gives me an instant headache. But sometimes, when I'm feeling particularly adventurous, I'll scroll down. I'll see what people have to say.
And sometimes I strike comedy gold. Unintentional comedy gold, but comedy gold nonetheless.
Well, I should hope not!
But what about uncles?
