    I have actually had the opposite experience. Instant message makes me want to explode with violence in a suburban shopping mall food court. I have enough trivial knowledge to digest on-line without being bombarded with the trials and tribulations of ADD-addled friends. If you really want to work shit out with your DSL connection, you should try Live Journal. Nobody will care about your ramblings, but the intense navel-gazing will provide a false sense of relief. Also: Try porn!

    I find that scribbling little penis drawings on celebrity photos helps keep the rage in check.

    I suggest leaving mean comments about celebrities on TMZ, in all caps and with ample misspellings. If BRITNEY ISA FAT SLOT doesn't make you feel better, nothing will.

    @TedSez: What about making fun of P*r*z H*lt*n? Or is that just too easy to be fun?

    @The One: I don't think you can go to that site without actually becoming depressed.
