We’re in need of online etiquette coaching, and quickly. We grew up being taught that if you can’t saying anything nice then you shouldn’t say anything at all, but that doesn’t seem to fly on the internet anymore. Our name for it is drive-by trolling: some stranger rolls into your comment section, says something so incredibly rude (that they’d never say to your face), and then gets mad if you try to defend yourself. And of course, they face no consequences for their asshole behavior. We’re sure it’s just a way for them to feel significant or important in some way, but we’re sick of being kicked around by some stranger on the internet that doesn’t have the confidence to share their own lives online. Maybe it’s time for some internet hall-monitors?
