One of the great things about social media is that it gives everyday people an opportunity to interact with the stars. One of the worst things about social media is that it gives everyday people an opportunity to interact with the stars.

I honestly don’t know how famous people can function without a burner account. Christina Hendrickson said I looked “slow” in eighth grade and I still fantasize about revenge 15 years later.

Imagine a famous you publicly congratulating a co-worker for a momentous achievement, like Mets’ Pete Alonso gave props to teammate Jacob deGrom for securing the NL Cy Young award.

Now, out of the blue, a fuckface fuck drops this on your plate.

“Lose weight fatass” to a guy who was crowned NL Rookie of the Year on Monday and holds the record for most home-runs as a rookie. Bold.

Alonso made sure to put the troll back on the shelf.

Troll doubles down!

I have been spending way too much time on the trolls replies to people telling him to launch himself into a buzzsaw for his comment about Alonso’s weight.

Gotta be honest, it’s more entertaining than I expected.

Someone either give this kid a microphone, a hug, or a straight jacket. Can’t decide which one would be most beneficial for society.

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
