It seems like sites like this one and the comments sections of our local newspapers have some real crazies on them.

I prefer patch.com personally.
Dee seriously have you ever read the comments on The Newsherald's site? Horrible. The only time I used Topix is when those "thugs" murdered and burnt down the house in Riverview then got away with it. BTW a friend lived there in elementary school so it was really weird.

Yeah, I have.. and they are horrible. The Free Press comments were horrible too until they recently required you to use your facebook logon to comment. Now they are much better because people aren't anonymous.

I'm not from my college town, but went there for undergrad, got grad degree #1 from there, worked in the town after graduation, and work at the University while getting grad degree #2. I joke that I qualify for townie status now.

On topic: Never knew we had this til I Googled it. The comments are all full of people who say they're from the neighboring rural area (we share a Topix with them) who either type lyke dis or don't know the difference between to/too/two. No thanks.
