Internet user admits 'web-rage'

Imagine if he arrived to find a twenty stone muscle-bound freak.

Now that would have been an interesting conversation.

 

That is so very London.

Honestly, some of the people in this city. I nearly got beaten up in the East End once for sounding my motorbike horn at a car driver. The fact that he was about to reverse into me and knock me into the gutter obviously made no difference to his view on the matter

 

I'll admit that there's more than a few people on the internet that I'd probably beat with an axe handle.

Starting with the guy that created myspace. <WHACK>

 

Nice! great start to the list who else can be added?

so it is MySpace then...let's see youtube?, ebay?

 

PAYPAL are the worst IMO

 

I second the PAYPAL nomination.

 

I'm OK with eBay, despite it being a harbor for scammers. There's some decent **** to be found there and it's innovative.
YouTube.. well, there's also decent **** to be found there, despite it being a harbor for copyright infringement and people who want to upload their pointless videos.

 

You should get this shirt then

 

no need really mate, if I were to call you a twat or some other incosiderate stuff I would get banned - as would everyone else - macrumors is far too efficient for this kind of stuff - but it is a nice reminder that one should be considerate at all times - even on the web - nice find

 

You cant beat tom up hes your 1st myspace friend

Back on topic, internet chat rooms are a bad place

 

Some people never learn...

 

also I'm a complete disgrace to human kind - I should have read the article first, then post - not the other way around - thought it didn't involve actually hurting people in real life!

 

70 miles...that's called being dedicated to a goal.

This reminds me of the timeless Tuff-Guys™ on Usenet who, separated by thousands of miles, exchange threats, yet have no intention of ever carrying them out.

This I don't get

Does that mean there's lawful wounding?

 

I guess that's as opposed to negligence. For example, you're working on a building site and drop a hammer on a passerby. You injure them and they have a right to damages, but you didn't do it deliberately.

 

That and psychopathic...

 

Yup. You give your consent to lawful wounding every time you have an operation or a tattoo or a play-fight (or join the army) or enter a boxing match. (tho there's always some debate over the boxing thing.)

Love bites and S+M play (in some legal systems) also count as lawful wounding. Various laws have tried to ban S+M play, but fallen over the fact that love bites would also be illegal under them.

Also in cases of self-defence, or in emergencies where you have to wound someone for their benefit, e.g. pulling them out of a crashed car on fire, that can also be lawful wounding.

 

Let us hope that this is the case.

 

Nice... I'm definitely going to consider it!

 

Then it is like and advertisement for the site...remember the Madona principal of marketing - Any press is good press - and as such any mention good or bad promotes the site...just a thought

 

These guys sure don't present a good example of "tolerant people of the Muslim faith." Perhaps it's media spin, but I think people like this are stirring all of the anti-Muslim sentiments around the world.
