otherwise known as the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory.

The Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory. First given a name by the boys at Penny Arcade, it is a theory that seeks to illuminate why so many people seem to degenerate into antisocial Jerkasses online, when they might only be mildly unpleasant or even polite in-person.

The equation is "Normal Person + Anonymity + Audience = Total Fuckwad"

This phenomenon has been studied in an academic setting, and by all accounts the satirical analysis is spot-on; normal people become more aggressive when they think their behavior carries no real-world social consequences. When people do not have to worry about getting in trouble with their loved ones, school, or place of employment, or getting into a direct physical altercation with anyone, they feel that they have nothing to lose by being shameless, insufferable jerks behind the veil of anonymity that is The Internet.
