Our parents always told us that confidence is what people follow. You can say whatever you want, but as long as you say it with enough conviction and poise, people will believe you… Usually. Unfortunately that's not exactly the case online. On the Internet, if you're confidently wrong, you're still just wrong. Confidence does not equate to intelligence in any way. Trouble-shooting and doing their own research have led Internet folks to make egregious claims that are semi baseless. If you said these things in conversation, your audience might let it slide. However, as a comment or as a post online, your words are forever engraved into the fabric of time, correct or otherwise. So at the risk of looking like a complete idiot, most people censor their online activity. For the enjoyment of people like ourselves, a large percentage of the population does NOT filter their posting in any way, resulting in the most painfully idiotic posts online. Enjoy.
