    Since the early days of blog spot etc I have always been fascinated why people gravitate to absorbing the opinions of random people with soap boxes to stand on. Like, we all know the mainstream media is shyte but that doesn't mean I'm about to go find some random dickhead with a blog or twitch stream to get my information from.

    WHY? I have never understood why.

      Because while the rest of us can just shake our heads and close the window, there is a certain sort of person that LOVES pointing out when people on the internet are wrong. They get a real charge out of it every time they do it, so they keep doing it.

      No, seriously, this is the answer. There are pleasurable brain chemicals released and everything.
