So I was just surfing youtube, and I stumbled upon the video above. The video itself isn't interesting, but the comments below it got me a bit riled up. Almost every user was complaining about how the onlookers just stood there and did nothing. They called it disgusting, and cowardly. I used to think like this when I was immature too, but I don't bullshit anymore.

Answering "I don't know" on the Internet....
This is something that I'm sure most people have noticed, and it's something I've witnessed hundreds of times but it never actually bothered me...until recently. I've been looking up a lot of questions on google and it has been frustrating me to a small degree. Why, when faced with a question on a forum thread or yahoo answers etc., do some people choose to answer "I don't know"?
