People talked about psychoanalysis - ego and superego and 'ids' and repressed early experiences.
It's just that some of us are better than others at letting our superegos muffle our whiny 'ids' .
They've been listening to their 'ids' for too long - their inner Sharons.
This is a fascinating - and at times unintentionally funny - look at egos in collision, 'ids' on the rampage and lives in crisis.
Psychologists have long noticed that the combination of distance and pseudoanonymity on the Internet tends to unlock people's 'ids' - hence all the flame wars, the UPPER CASE SHOUTING, and the rampant flirting in chat rooms.
