Free Chatrooms: How To Spot Freaks, Geeks And Dirty Old Men
In a free chatroom, who's really lurking behind that handle? What sort of depraved people are hiding behind the anonymity of The Internet? This film takes a look at some common screen names, and exposes who's really there (clue: it's a man)
Chat rooms can be depressing little places, mostly full of horny nerds looking to fiddle with their trousers in front of something more interactive than pixilated lady bumps.

It's a MAN.

It's either a pre-teen or a MAN. Either way, tread carefully.

It's a nerd. What's more, it's an extraordinarily uncool nerd. Genuinely cool people, like The Fonz, don't need to draw attention to their coolness unless they're jumping over sharks on water-skis.

Anyone with square brackets and/ or numbers in their ‘handle' is a teenager, and as such not to be trusted. They'll spell things wrong, misuse the possessive apostrophe, and have Caps Lock FIRMLY GLUED DOWN.

Depressed nerd, who'll mope and whine about a presumably-fake girl he recently ‘finished' with. Most likely she's from a different country, and they've never actually, you know, ‘met', only in chat rooms, but it was ‘quite serious for a bit there lol'.

Desperately wants to be in a Japanese cartoon, and is frustrated that ‘real women' never quite match up or carry swords.

Will say ‘LOLOLOOLOLOLOL' a lot, and uses kisses like they mean something xxx

Definitely a teenager, definitely unable to hack anything other than 127.0.0.1.
BAD_A$$
Unnecessarily antagonistic.

Cruising for sex. Again, probably a man.

Cruising for sex. Probably a man, probably a teenager, probably a nerd. In either case, they've only got a tiny winkie.
Of course, all stereotyping is essentially little more than clandestine institutionalized racism, and not strictly-speaking true. So try to go into each and every chat room with a care-free attitude and tolerance for others, and you should do fine. Unless you're a teenager of course, in which case bugger off.
