No there is not, its a made up idea by little flower wearing, tree hugging pussies. Its the internet if you don't like something you read, you CLOSE THE PAGE. Its that kind of mentality that gave us "PG13" and "edited for TV".
cyber bullying...**** see THIS is why this country is filled with a bunch of ****ing hippy pansy asses anymore. Think on that, when a homo like me can say that, you know there is a problem!

Am I? For me, its instant turn off if they take themselves too seriously. Did he overstep his bounds by reaching out, not really knowing his audience and offer to build engines? Sure...thats a little presumptuous. But he wasn't a jerk about it and didn't claim to know everything and that those he reached out to, knew nothing. At least, thats not how it read anyway. I'd simply say thanks. I also might be used to being treated that I'm automotively challenged, being missing a peen and all. 
With your reason and smartness!!!

Its a different world now and although I agree that its much more pussified than it used to be, as a parent I have to take it seriously so I can teach my daughter the difference between the real thing and when its just name calling and shear smack talk. If she can learn to brush it off and take it with a grain of salt at an early age, I might circumvent her over dramatic reaction when she grows up.

Cyber bullying is real, but calling someone like you short and bald isn't the definition of it. Being the subject of wildfire rumors, mean girl campaigns and such while people hide behind their internet anonymity...thats what it is. People who can say whatever they want like a keyboard jocky without fear of being jaw jacked. Thats cyber bullying. We had the luxury of looking our bullies in the eye when they talked their smack when we were kids.

I guess I just don't get it. I mean I had a "bully" and I finally had enough of it. One day after school he was waiting in his usual place. I took a bat to his leg, then threatened to smash his skull in. He backed off...we ended up becoming pretty good friends after that.

I had a decent conversation with the kid after I asked the f&f question. Hes just a young kid that loves his car. Seems like a good dude. Seems to me that none of us should judge him based on one single pist on fb...
Did all his own work, and got tuned by Ed.
I hope he comes out tomorrow so we can find out who he actually is. I mean really... if we judged everyone on their internet personality... heedz would be very lonely...
