@darius Among the worst things I have seen on the internet was a post by Wil Wheaton about how years and years of countless strangers telling him “Shut up, Wesley” actually hurt, and he knew how ridiculous it sounded so couldn't publicly admit to it until middle age, and guess what the bulk of the replies were, winky-face.

I don't know if I ever had the urge to reply like that but it stopped that day, at least. (And I am apologetic if I ever did engage in this.)
