Someone told me about why seniors might go to the store or coffee shop or sit down and get the same thing at a denny's or mcdonalds everyday. These days that might be all the human interaction they have. They might not have many friends left or family close by to be in contact with. So all they have to look forward in a day is maybe a smile on a counter clerks face or a greeting from a bus driver.

I think there are many people here that have a similar situation to that. But being younger or likely not adjusted by then they don't really have the tools or insight to behave properly so they act out in ways that get attention in anyway. Anonymity does remove the stigma and fear of lashing out in ways that are bad. But its also a blanket that stifles and fuels it because you wont get attention or interaction and you almost have to be more engaging to stand out without a face when you are just a jumble of a username.
