@mrmcmayhem @tomey @chris eh, I think they are just generally unhappy people looking for something to fill the void. They have no real struggle in life so they have invented one. They have a lot of anger and resentment built up that they can't deal with directly, so they funnel it into this.
To put it this way: There's never been one of these folks I've met that seemed honestly happy AND stable. They really mess with my zen, man.
