The internet can be a dark place, brimful of bilious hatred, cyber-bullying and cowardly people just being total plonkers, so how heart-warming is it to see folks being friendly to each other in a comments section for a change?
there's a community of old men who have conversations every morning in the comments section of guardian crosswords pic.twitter.com/wACmiVTLFi

It's just glorious.

@EnvGen @iandioch I find this strangely touching. Like little fish thriving in puddles left behind after a lake evaporates. Wait what?

It seems like such a serene, peaceful world.
And along with the comments you'll find under classical music on Youtube, it might just be the most civilised conversation you'll ever see on the internet.
I seriously want to be friends with these guys.
