	While it's not current news, several years ago there was the Starbucks Red-Cup Controversy, stirred up by the media claiming everyone was outraged. In fact, only a small number of people were actually outraged about the cups, while most people were outraged by the controversy itself!

Needless to say, there's nothing like stress to make you hate your job. Now, compound that with a less than happy marriage, or home life to come home to, and you have a recipe for disaster.When we find ourselves in stressful situations, our bodies releases the hormones adrenaline and cortisol into the blood stream. This is one of our body's defense mechanisms which are meant to prepare us for "fight-or-flight" mode. This hormone then triggers an increase in the heart rate, and causes the body to retain sodium, which in turn increases blood pressure. There are other complications that can arise from an overexposure to cortisol and adrenaline as well; digestive trouble, insomnia, depression, eczema, and obesity have been linked to being over stressed.

	There's a distinct lack of attention to the fact at least one of these comments/tweets are entirely stripped of context. The second to last one has absolutely no mention of the topic at hand, just a general statement. This delivers a particular punch coupled with the article's hand-picked comments to support a narrative.

 I think everyone is missing the real point of this comic. What it's really satirizing is the way the news media elevates a handful of negative comments about something to mean "The Internet is outraged".

 :I'm not sure I agree with this interpretation! I agree that many times articles display copies of tweets, but the article title specifically mentions random comments, not random tweets. I believe the comments are indeed from readers of the article, but that's just my impression. [[User:Ianrbibtitlht|Ianrbibtitlht]] ([[User talk:Ianrbibtitlht|talk]]) 21:38, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
 A lot of XKCD comics reference or allude to current events/reality. Are there a lot of articles that focus on the first few reader comments? Aside from NPR's move, is there something else Randall's referencing?
