    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Unfortunately not weeding them out has created a problem: waste-of-space losers, with massive chips on their shoulders, who were previously gagged before the Internet existed, have been given a 'voice' to rage against the world, venting their jealous frustrations and 'trolling' others they resent who've been successful, and have a life that's worth living...

    Inadequates/losers don't like happy people, because it exposes their own unhappiness. These scumbags should've all been kept gagged and left to rot!! And if I had my way, that's what would happen. Do I detest them? No, what makes you think that? I certainly pity them
