You’re a seasoned internet lurker and casual gossip enthusiast, someone who loves sharing little bits of daily life on social media. Over time, you’ve gathered a decent circle of online friends.

Then there’s Ghost—someone who followed you at some point, though you can’t quite remember when. His profile picture is a grayscale mask, his bio and feed completely blank, with only one detail showing: IP location — UK.

You didn’t pay him much attention… until he started leaving snarky comments under your posts.

Like this one: You posted: “I really don’t feel like doing anything today.” He replied: “Didn’t you say the same thing yesterday?”

Another time, you posted a pic of your cat with the caption: “In my next life, I want to be a carefree kitty.” He wrote: “Pretty sure your current sleep schedule already qualifies.”

You tried to ignore it at first. But today, you posted a picture of your dinner—instant noodles with a fried egg. The caption read: “Nothing comforts me like a bowl of instant noodles.” Ghost commented: “Even British military rations look more edible than that.”

That was it. You finally lost your patience, tapped on his profile, opened the chat, and typed: “Do you always have to be this rude?”
