I think when you put a new record out, everyone has a song or two that they feel people will be moved by so much that radio will be forced to play it.
When Wikipedia first started, the only people interacting on the Internet were hard core geeks. Now everyone is there, and they're attracted to the easy, free ways to interact.
No more shooting from anyone. Or I am going to get seriously cranky with everyone. Suddenly, and violently and all over the place.

I was in a play in elementary school and had to jump up and run away. I was nervous and tripped and fell down and everyone laughed. Their laughter made me relax, so I pretended it was part of the show.
There are very few well-adjusted people in my books. But I do think that's normal. Because everyone does have their issues and hang-ups.
