When someone gets upset on the internet, they are "mad on the internet." This is similar to being mad in real life, but never justifiable, and will always make one look particularly bad or stupid.
People are always getting mad on the internet at me just because I'm never wrong and know how to keep my cool.

Get the internet retardation mug.title of book by John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) outlining the general concept of Keynesian economics. The book was published in 1936.
*Context*
______________________________
Prior to the Great Depression, opinions about how to properly manage the economy were dominated by Neoclassical economics, which advocated little government intervention. In particular, unemployment was regarded as the consequence of workers failing to accept wages sufficiently low to permit full employment.
During the Great Depression, unemployment soared to 25% in the USA and Germany. Economics had no advice to give to leaders anxious to do something, and none of the neoclassical predictions were coming true. The government of the UK commissioned J.M. Keynes to lead a commission of top British economists in a general review of economic theory; their finding were summarized by Keynes in *The General Theory*.
*The Findings*
______________________________
The Cambridge team did not have access to statistics of national income and product accounting (NIPA). They did have some data on unemployment and prices, especially from the USA.
Keynes also identified several inherent logical problems with neoclassical economic theory about saving and investment. The theory said that all economic output of an economy would tend to be consumed; all saving would be invested; and all workers would be employed, *provided wages fell low enough*.
Keynes noted the economic mechanism by which investment occurs has little to do with the existing rate of saving; both are influenced by interest rates, but other forces come into play (e.g., liquidity preference for saving, business opportunities and user cost for investment). Hence, aggregate demand can drift very far out of alignment with output (or potential output).
Another finding was that employment rates actually did not respond in a predictable way to the fall in wages. The US economy suffered periods when a reduction in the wage level lead to increases in employment, despite the assumption that workers would have withdrawn from the labor market.
Finally, Keynes proposed the use of monetary policy and fiscal policy for regulating business cycles.

The *The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money* completely shook up the world of economic policy. Hereafter, governments took responsibility for economic conditions or they lost power.

Get the internet explorer mug.Internet Wrestling Community (IWC for short). One of the biggest cop out phrases in all of wrestling. Newsflash, if you are online and looking at this definition and are a wrestling fan, even if you only watch WWE, YOU ARE THE IWC. This is not 1997 where less than 20 percent of wrestling fans have internet access, this is the 2010's where 99 percent of fans have access online. So if you are a wrestling fan, have online access, talk about wrestling at all on any website forum or YouTube, guess what, YOU ARE THE INTERNET WRESTLING COMMUNITY.
What those elitist fans (smarks) should be called is Internet Smarks, because IWC is such a copout and if you are talking about the elitist and say the Internet Wrestling Community, you are in fact saying that 99 percent of wrestling fans are elitist pricks.
