some people are just bitter and feel the need to take it out on others. some are drunk and dont know what they're doing. and some people just get kicks out of upsetting others. all you can do is ignore them :)

A story...Why are people so mean....
One day a traveler was walking along a road on his journey from one village to another. As he walked he noticed a monk on the side of the road. The monk said "Good day" to the traveler, and the traveler nodded to the monk. The traveler then turned to the monk and said "Excuse me, do you mind if I ask you a question?". "Not at all," replied the monk.
"I am traveling from the village in the mountains to the village in the valley and I was wondering if you knew what it is like in the village in the valley?"
"Tell me," said the monk, "What was your experience of the village in the mountains?"
"Dreadful," replied the traveler, "to be honest I am glad to be away from there. I found the people most unwelcoming. When I first arrived I was greeted coldly. I was never made to feel part of the village no matter how hard I tried. The villagers keep very much to themselves, they don't take kindly to strangers. So tell me, what can I expect in the village in the valley?"
"I am sorry to tell you," said the monk, "but I think your experience will be much the same there". The traveler hung his head despondently and walked on.
A while later another traveler was journeying down the same road and he also came upon the monk. "I'm going to the village in the valley," said the second traveler, "Do you know what it is like?" "I do," replied the monk "But first tell me - where have you come from?"
"I've come from the village in the mountains." "And how was that?"
"It was a wonderful experience. I would have stayed if I could but I am committed to traveling on. I felt as though I was a member of the family in the village. The elders gave me much advice, the children laughed and joked with me and people were generally kind and generous. I am sad to have left there. It will always hold special memories for me. And what of the village in the valley?" he asked again.
"I think you will find it much the same" replied the monk, "Good day to you".
"Good day and thank you," the traveler replied, smiled, and journeyed on.

I think they get a kick out of anonymity. I do but I try not to be mean. I'm opinionated this could come off as such sometimes. Some people are just really a- holes that's all.

Maybe because no one has been kind towards them.
We have heard of the proverb, "It takes a village to raise a soul"
When no one has been kind to you, you would grow up as a nasty and boisterous person.
That is why, I recommend you all to be very very kind to everyone you met, including people on Answers!

Thats life. People suck. Just hang on to the few good people in your life and don't worry about what people say on the internet. Chances are they are way too coward to say such rude things in person.

I have grown out of the meanness mostly.We sit here trying to have fun, and these trolls show up out for nothing more than controversy.It's easy to unload on people that you know you'll never meet.

beacuse they dont take us (all of us) on the net seriously, that's why they're hiding in different codenames so that they can be as they wish: nasty, mean, joker... whatever!

Because they can be. You dont know who they are, you cant see they face to face. They are just messing with you and they really dont care. Dont worry about it, It just their human nature, to be a real jerk, which they probably are in real life.
