No they don't. If it wasn't them things, it'd be because they were unhappy with their life listening to Joy Division. Or people were bullying them in the real world.

And like you say if you're getting shit just adjust your privacy settings. I find it a really weak argument when people say that Facebook is a bad thing, it's the people using Facebook.
People can be twats period, but people are generally more unforgiving on the Internet because of the fact that they can bully anonymously, or behind a wall which is less confronting than in real life. That's what I meant by saying people can be twats on the internet. But yeah. Agree.
