I wonder how many people truly find comments like these funny.

You are not the only one. Unfortunately the knee-jerk, overreacting minority of internet ragers are way more noisy on the interwebz.

I know everyone is up-in-arms about this "always online" thing, and I'm genuinely not trying to troll or start an argument, but... am I the only one around here who doesn't really care about always being online?
