@anildash I didn't see this mentioned so I will: when a follower is scolding you he (it's almost always a he) is, IMHO, desperately trying to engage with you in the only way he knows how. Social media is used as a substitute for human interaction, and a bad interaction is better than none at all. I'm not excusing that behavior, just trying to suggest that something bigger is going on.

How to fix it? No idea. People who use social media instead of RL connections are in a bad place.

@alienmelon almost died laughing

@ikonha they can’t go to trial with assault charges because they would have to show this to the jury, who would laugh so hard they would physically be unable to render a verdict.
