I find this truly a fascinating aspect of Usenet.

I think this demotivator says it best about how this happens:

But then there are all these, relevant in some way (I think) to Usenet:

http://despair.com/dysfunction.html
http://despair.com/noname13.html
http://despair.com/idiocy.html
http://despair.com/cluelessness.html
http://despair.com/compromise.html
http://despair.com/connot.html
http://despair.com/humiliation.html
http://despair.com/potential.html

Thank you for those humorous and insightful thoughts. Most
appreciated.
