sarcasm....drip, drip, drip

Dear Anonymous,
I've always admired your candor and the carefree expression of your innermost thoughts. I've also noticed that being anonymous frees you up to not have to filter what you're saying. I've met a few people like you in the past, they're freed up to say and do whatever pops into their minds. You love those folks who left no thought unexpressed, especially when it's through an unsigned note.

Sure, there are those that think blasting someone's thoughts anonymously is sort of a cowardly thing to do, but I'm going to stand up for your right to lob insults from afar. I think there's even something to be admired about someone who arrives under the veil of darkness and leaves a little verbal pipe bomb in someone's e-mailbox.

I know there are people who back their words up with their name - and they take accountability for their words - but who needs that kind of hassle? How are you expected to totally change your mind without feeling stupid because you were dumb enough to put a name next your idea? It's insane.

Accountability is overrated. Anonymity is the new answerability.

Imagine a nameless/faceless society where everything was done over the phone or internet and nobody really interfaced at all!

Bravo anonymous, for inspiring us all with your wisdom. Thank you for your witty little remarks. Bless you my child, whomever you are, for your insight into conversations previously left unresolved!

and man, do you get around...
