Dear Insane,
Most people on the interwebs aren't completely insane. The internet just gave crazy people a place to congregate. There aren't more on here than there are on say, facebook, you just get more pervs here because you can see a lot more nasty for free. And on the net, they seek out each other to validate their psychotic behavior. For the 1000 people who will tell them they are stuck on stupid, there's always a few who will reassure them that their idiocy is completely warranted.
The internet also gives people the security of anonymity. Those keyboard gangsters will throw out all kinds of crazy thinking they won't ever have to meet the person on the other end. Just remember, threats of violence or cyberstalking is actually a federal crime these days, and can be reported and prosecuted.
If you happen to run across one of the nests of psycho, it's best to pull the pin, throw the grenade, and run like hell! Screen shots will also help remind you why you aren't friends with that big bowl of nuts.
Good Luck!
BTW, have you taken your meds today?
