What's the most ridiculous reason why someone sent you death threats?
-
Not so much a death threat but more of an indirect "kill yourself" through Reddit's care package system.
There was a comic strip/meme someone posted that was a reference to Romeo & Juliet and some people in the comments didn't understand it, so I gave my attempt at explaining the connection. Not only did I get my first taste at how heated Shakespeare nerds get about things not being exactly the same to count as references, but someone straight up just sent me a care package in good ol' Reddit tradition of love and peace.
Genuinely concerning how people get so angry at such a minuscule thing.

Is it common for people to get death threats?
Or at least get enough that you can start ranking them by category?
Maybe I'm just lucky.

I was hired for a job some guy had been fired from several years earlier. There had been at least one other person in the position after him and before me. But for some reason he found out about me, decided I was a problem, and I had to get escorted to and from my car in the employee parking and the building each day for a couple of weeks until he lost interest.
And more pedestrian yet depressing, the stereotypical: I politely declined unwanted advances from a strange man in a bar, strange man promptly lost all emotional control and proved I made the right decision.

I once had a conversation about economics with a different person. Just something clicked in some other guy and sent them down a spiral.

Gods who specifically said 'blessed are the peace-makers', no less.
Well, obviously it's not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturer of dairy products.

I was working for an ISP and sent one of our customers a warning about harassing people via email. He switched to me instead. It escalated up the chain to my manager's manager, who called the customer's dad because he was 14. Dad got him under control, because the alternative was to lose his phone service for 12 months.
A year later, the kid contacted me again to say I should give him a job, because I'm an incompetent fuck and users shouldn't have to put up with me. Would you be surprised to learn we didn't hire him?
Every few years I stalk his blog to see what he's been up to. There's usually a couple more arrests to add to the tally, but like always they weren't his fault, because someone provoked him!
I must ask. Please post his blog link.

I think the one time I kept taunting that one guy about fucking his Mom in the butt. He threatened to kill me when I live-streamed it. Fucking ridiculous.
Not condoning the death threats, but live-streaming the butt-fucking of his mom is a bit much.

I made a PR/commit to to a foss android kernel for 'tap to wake' ported from fork to another model. I fully attributed where and who and complied with the GPL. The guy lost his shit and threatened my very existence, over around 20 lines of code.

Wouldn't that be doxxing?

My biological brother: for basicly all the time when i argue against him and prove him wrong. Last time: for showing him with litteral math that salt water does not take longer to boil!

Well it definitely doesn't take longer. Did he get the "myth" backwards?

Might be a fine line for a non public figure, but it's not too different from providing someone's Twitter handle after mentioning they were a dipshit. Assuming it's a public facing blog.

No. He completely said "no salter cooks longer! All my cook friends say so!!"

Facebook: Got comments from by wife's brother and his friends about God's blessing and such being responsible for her pregnancy.
"It's 2013. We have a pretty solid handle on how a woman gets pregnant, and there's no god in the explanation."
Of my fuck they exploded. "I'll fucking kill you!" "Best not come back to this town!" So it goes.
Then why does she scream 'oh my god!!! Jesus! Yes yes!!! Oh my fucking god!!!' when we're working on making her pregnant?

Nobody ever had strong enough feelings for me to either send me love letter or death threats

I was talking with a girl. Absolutely just talking, nothing else, not trying to get anywhere with her. Still got a "I'll kill ya" from a guy I did not know, who supposedly was her boyfriend.
Didn't turn out well. I learned not much later that she kicked him out for being permanently jealous.
