In my experience, snide is the new black on internet fora. When the insecure come across true beauty, in whatever form, they often resort to what ever low means they can to reduce the happy to their own level of sad.

Whether, it takes mocking the object of their frustration or even slighting their loved ones, snide people use this dishonest form of bullying to alienate the individual.


We all recognise it and it truly is pathetic.
