An example of this would be a teenager who thinks he or she has so much power over an entity that is so insignificant (like an Internet forum or something).

No.

But what I REALLY HATE are internet polls whose entire purpose is make fun at someone else without invoking his/her name. I really hate that.

Hmmm. Not sure what you're talking about.

I wouldn't dare try to spark a fight with someone like that though. I wouldn't want my thread locked by an overzealous egomaniac.

I don't think I understand you fully, Phil. But I wouldn't get into a fight with such a person either, who knows, it might turn into eight pages of spam after that person got owned in the first post and can't admit it. But that is just my speculation, I doubt such a thing would really happen on the internet.

I have a big problem with people that use personal feelings to assert their authority.  It shows a major lack of maturity.

I don't mean to pick on Phil in particular, but we seem to have a lot of particular crappy self indulgent  threads being put up lately.  If I were the decision maker on this, I think I would just delete a passel of them myself - to send a message. But I am not, so carry on!

Which is exactly what a certain child did earlier. Oh well. He rules in the Internets world so I surrender!

Gentlemen, you can't bicker endlessly over trivial matters here; this is a political forum!

Of course, everyone hates people who think they're more important than they really are. The problem is figuring out and deciding who those people are.

     Yes, though it's not a big deal. Literally everyone suffers from that, after all. Otherwise you wouldn't have reality TV.
