Almost as addicting as Facebook, DirtyDTown has gained the reputation of being a website people check on a regular basis. Now whether it's to laugh at the unfortunate people who make it up on the site, or simply to reassure oneself they aren't on the website, DirtyDTown is getting probably more hits than it deserves.
It's a guilty pleasure we all take part in seeing classmates make fools of themselves in public. It's even better when we can rehash these moments on a website. But is this really fair? I'm sure this website is all fun and games... until your face pops up once. (Or dozens of times if you become a favorite). And the harsh comments? Sure some are funny, but I think it's time some of the people on the site grew up and leave the bullying to the high school basketball courts. It's college - we're supposed to be more accepting of everyone.
I've been lucky enough to not have my face plastered on the screen yet, but hey I think we could all take a very valuable lesson from DirtyDTown. Don't act like a tramp or drunken idiot if there's a camera around - especially if the person hiding behind the lens has a grudge against you. Once that flash blinds you, it's fair game where that picture will end up.
