Internet Births a New Kind of Idiot

The Internet has birthed into our society a new kind of Idiot.

The Cyber-Terrorist, Cyber-Slammer, Internet-Basher, or whatever you want to call the sad, pathetic, obsessive-compulsive, societal-rejects that spend their lives bashing others.

As a very simple example, there are "I Hate ________" websites for just about anything.
The following list is pathetic, funny, and by no means complete. But it will demonstrate very clearly how many sick, confused, cynical, negative, depraved people there are out there with nothing more to do than use the Internet as a haven for their demented minds.

The most common "I hate" sites are:

1. My Insurance Company
2. Credit Card Company
3. Health Care Provider
4. Unions
5. Utility Company
6. Disney (1,220 sites!)
7. Ford (953 sites!)
8. Chevy (178 sites)
9. Foreign Cars (17)
10. God (2,500 sites)
11. Nike (159 sites)
12. Cars (1,980)
13. Mel Gibson (50)
14. Wal Mart -
881 "I hate Wal-Mart"
2,820 "Wal-Mart Sucks"
39 "Wal-Mart Blows"
126 "Boycott Wal-Mart"

Total sites with the phrase "I hate" - approximately 4,190,000.

And there are so many more.

The Internet has given these losers a tool to match their hatred.

So, Quixtar IBOs, having a few nobodies bashing your business simply means you have hit the big time! Look again at the list above: pretty good company!

And here’s another point: All of the above targets of unfair Internet criticism are flourishing! (Just like Quixtar!)

Could it be their plan is backfiring?

Aww, poor babies.
