The group I'm referring to is clearly wider than the OP, since the OP was and continues to be one person. I specified that it's a group I know, and I went on to give some qualities of said group which indicate it's not everyone.

Kinja is my nemesis, seriously. I've been hiding on the Observation Deck for weeks and weeks. I'm avoiding a deadline at work, so...random reading of actual articles. I'll know it's too far if I end up on gawker.com.
