So have I and I always thought it was dumb and dangerous.
Exaggerated analogy:
Someone will get in a car accident regardless so why not drive while texting and even taking a shot of Cuervo? Life is unpredictable but we increase the odds and make disaster more predictable when we do dumb stuff.

I'm just adding to the point that I hope DubaiSis was making which is the risk of these things wasn't invented with technology and the Internet. It was documented and publicized with technology and the Internet. This stuff was always potentially dangerous.
