However, it does prove one thing - you are really in need of some help.- Hide quoted text - The comparison is obvious. In both cases, you have somebody with foul intent finding amusement in the distress of an unwilling victim. One is physical distress, the other isn't, but the basic action is the same. Thanks for the observation that I need some "help", but if getting such help would result in me finding a mean-spirited, off-topic, personal attack post "funny", I'll just sit over here in the "unhelped" or "beyond help" section. The goofy video is adolescent, at best; and it says *much* more about the mental and emotional maturity of the attacker than the victim, (as these sorts of things always do). Question: Would you find the video just as funny if the head of some person important to your religion, an American soldier in Iraq, or your favorite Republican presidential contender was substituted for Doug's? How about a family member, would that be funny? Isn't there a chance that your personal opinion of Doug is what allows you to find this funny? If so, then it's the specfic criticism of an individual that you are enjoying, not the childish video. I don't know Doug and don't have a personal opinion of him. (His specfic action of crossposted trolling isn't all that great, but I don't know him well enough in general to hold an opinion). Sans a negative opinion of the victim of the nonsense in question, it's hard to understand why any mature adult would find it amusing. Game. Set. Match. |
