Crazy People off the Internet
The internet is full of mental. Ever been threatened with violence? Did it spill over into real life? Tell us your story. Or maybe you wish to buck the trend and tell us about the how you've met lots of quite nice, sane people.

Internet whoring in the nineties and the noughties...
Can't say I've met any real internet 'crazies'... I guess probably because I was one of them? In my teenage years, back in the dark days of dial-up AOL, when I was full of teen angst and loneliness, and felt like I was a deeply unattractive and miserable chap, I used to troll the chat rooms and antagonise people by generally trying to come up with clever pedantic responses to the ubiquitous A/S/L? I also had a running battle with a nice fellow who often expressed a desire to give me a good 'rimming', whatever that is.. and he took my rejection as a sign of homophobia, which was curious.
But so I was in these chat rooms A LOT... and thought I was connecting with other angsty lonely teens whining about how miserable and lonely they were, mostly female, When in fact in hindsight I realise just how devastatingly effective I was at talking girls into meeting me in person, and had some steamy flings with several of them. It even got to the point that some of the 'regulars' and I in my favourite chatroom started to compete for the same girls... over the internet. There was like an unofficial scorecard of how many people off the internet you've (legally, consensually) had sex with.
And yet, we all still felt miserable and alone, because we weren't meeting them in pubs or nightclubs... we were meeting them ONLINE. Which is really sad and pathetic, apparently.
Can't truly say that I ever actually stopped this deplorable behaviour either, because I met my wife online too. But, can't really pretend to be angsty and lonely anymore.

Yes, but I like to play down my devilish good looks,
so as not to make you all jealous.
