an extreme example of a phenomenon that academics call “internet banging”

Really? We call it that?

For "academics" read "two guys we found in the cafeteria at a local university" unless otherwise specified.

Today I learned a term "academics" pulled from their asses to describe "being a fucking psycho" and "attempted murder."

Not sure why they charged him with murder 2 - this is clearly some premeditated shit.
