Then I&#8217;ll check back to see what people thought about my comments. Occasionally, others don&#8217;t take the enlightened things i say well, and I get in these comments fights. If I&#8217;m not careful, it can take up my whole day! I know I probably should engage these weirdos, but honestly I am afraid that I&#8217;m actually the weirdo. Is it weird that I worry about this kind of thing?<br \/>\nSigned,<br \/>\nMy Best Work Is On Gawker<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dear My Best Work,<br \/>\nWow. I have always wondered who those people are. In fact, one of my favorite things to do is read comments-fights and wonder if the hormones in our cow meat have finally gotten us to a peak societal rage.<\/p>\n<p>Hey do you ever goad people into fighting <\/strong><strong>on craigslist.com<\/strong><strong>? I think those are probably the best fights, because they&#8217;re so impressively pointless. They&#8217;re not even about ethics or politics, just fed up squabbling. It&#8217;s as awesome as it is totally depressing.<\/p>\n<p>I bet that if it wasn&#8217;t so easy to get food this kind of stuff wouldn&#8217;t happen. I mean, stranger&#8217;s comments wouldn&#8217;t drive you to the edge if you weren&#8217;t so warm and safe and well fed. It&#8217;s like we have to create things to struggle for, because we don&#8217;t have to worry about the basics anymore. Personally, I start to go insane when I&#8217;m hungry. Just the other day I knocked down a little kid and ate her sandwich while I hunched in the street because it was 12:45 pm and I hadn&#8217;t had lunch. I could probably parlay that instinct into some sweet hunting skills.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<br \/>\nPoor Lucky Me <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Poor Lucky Me, Sometimes I read on-line news and like to leave comments.
