What makes me wonder is why we gossip about everybody and everything at a slightest provocation? Personally I hate it and feel as much guilt as a biggest crime that could have been comitted on occassion I get involved in talks about people (even though the discussion maybe important).
Human beings by nature loves to gossip and spread rumour ( a pleasure so rare, i guess), and the internet seems to be the greatest gift from above for these so called gossip mongers. The forums are flooded with such topics and staggering hits just proves that everyone loves it! If only topics of global interest are treated with equal importance!
Perhaps the writers donot realise how much damage words can cause"tongue has no bone but it can break many"..words are words whether spoken or written. There are cases of lives being lost , in Korea some celebreties have resorted to suicide due to such rumours not to mention how it stains a person's credibility (especially in this fame concious world).
It's surprising to know such concepts of pleasure for humans! Can't we be just compassionate with our time and intellect?
