Well i noticed that a lot of times me or my friends will say something like "Man if that person ever comes up to me again, im gonna punch them in the face!"(that was an example i dont think weve said those exact words).Anyways that is what i call a hollow threat.Many people constantly make threats like "Im gonna kill you!" or "Ill punch ur head in!"But how many of those people follow through?

My question to YOU escapists, is if you do make threats, do you follow through with them?

This is the internet. Hollow threats are the name of the game.
If you don't stop disrespecting the internet I'll kick you square in the nuts!

In person: about 20% of the time.

Online: well, I can't very well bend over someone's mom if I don't know where they live, now can I?

And if you don't start respecting others right to disrespect the internet, I'll kick you square in the nuts!


Back on topic..... Whenever I feel it is truly necessary. So, once in a while I will follow through with my hollow threats.

You realize you're talking to a group of pseudo-intellectual internet tough guys, right?

I don't make threats. I leave caltrops under tires and drop laxatives into unattended drinks. What I would do, anyway, if I met someone who I felt deserved it.

Very passive aggressive, for better or worse.

Edit:

Well, I did bleach someone's clothes while they were at PE class back in the day... and left idle death threat poems (very empty, I assure you) in a kid's locker that stole money from me a year after the fact. He was good and scared =D.
