Apparently it is, because you're discussing it.

I read that article twice, and found no definition or example of this so-called "virtual rape", and the author said he wasn't even talking about video. Forced online sexual activity with "text, animation, and malicious scripts". How the hell is that possible? Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

Pfffftt.

While I agree that any kind of assault is bad, how dumb do people have to be really? You simply as stated above close the page and be done with it. If you fear it then turn it off. Just like a scary movie, if it scares you look away or turn it off for crying out loud! When are people on this planet going to screw their heads on straight and stop wasting time trying to find any little thing to give a lawyer a reason to fight someone, or sue someone for providing the website or chat room or internet messenger that the offender used.

For petes sake simply sign off!

And no, I didn't see a definition either.

I was playing WoW during that time actually (I quit, it sucks). I can understand raiding, and in that game "kick em while their down" is not frowned upon. I'm not sure what is more depressing though, that the funeral got raided by enemies or that a real life funeral was being held online.

I cant agree more. Why do people really think this stuff is so serious. I've been spanked for being wrong on the internet as have others. I didn't loose any sleep over it that is for sure. I don't think I even paused for a second, simply hit the delete key and its all gone.

Something I just noticed - the name of the blog is The Codependent Collegian. Gotta be satire. What makes it so pathetic though, is that it could be taken seriously.

Depressing thought.

IF you want a really good chuckle click on her picture and view the enlarged version. Notice the right eye (which would be the left one in the picture) sits about half an inch lower the left eye. As well the brow is slightly lower too, not quite as much but still noticeable.

Also note the nasty greasy forehead. And the books, all tilted to one side to try and compensate for that crooked face. It is an odd picture once seen full size.

edit
Not sure why I didn't just link the picture into the thread in the first place.

Now Noize, you are a sick man.

BTW, I downloaded that pic for future photoshop purposes. Not sure what those purposes are yet.

Maybe the books are all tilted to one side as a result of her crooked face!

The effect has already been documented and formulated... so you can calculate how much you need to drink.
