Replying rudely to a stranger online, publicly, where they can see it:
Wow I love the new age of communication!
That person reads it and responds negatively:
Hey what the fuck leave me alone
I don't know if I'm just old or something but everytime I say something on social media its always filtered through a "what would this sound like if I said it to someone at a party" or "if someone called me on this in public would I be able to defend it".
It feels insane that a huge swath of people I see online are just blasting whatever they want just assuming no other human beings exist on the other side of the screen and then getting weirdly surprised and defensive when the other person responds like any normal person would.
A real "wants to talk shit all day but too anxious to order food over the phone" type attitude or however the tweet goes
