Step 243: Do not act like an asshole anonymously
A friend of mine found this super-constructive note on her car earlier today.
Look. This should be obvious. It should be really, really obvious. But it seems like it’s not, and it’s not just teenagers who do this kind of thing.
Don’t do or say shitty things to people anonymously. If it is so, so important that you be mean to someone (or legitimately call them out on bad behavior), put your name and face by it, or better yet, do it in person. Don’t say it over the internet, cushioned by distance and ability to shut the computer without imagining what that person’s face looks like.
Also? If you hate someone, or their work, or a website so much, then just give them a miss to the best of your ability. Ignore them. Spend your precious and limited minutes interacting with people you like and respect.
