You’ve Seen The Butcher(of the English language.)

There, I got a Deftones reference in for you, all better now?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Please promise me that as soon as the short bus drops you off at home from middle school, that you will post every day…………..

Afghanistam: Wow, kids today are dense lol (And lazy) I that going to Google to look it up yourself is hard work, so I went ahead and put “troll definition” into Google for you, and this is what came up:

What Is A Troll?

The term derives from “trolling”, a style of fishing which involves trailing bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. The troll posts a message, often in response to an honest question, that is intended to upset, disrupt or simply insult the group.

Usually, it will fail, as the troll rarely bothers to match the tone or style of the group, and usually its ignorance shows.
Why do trolls do it?

I believe that most trolls are sad people, living their lonely lives vicariously through those they see as strong and successful.

Disrupting a stable newsgroup gives the illusion of power, just as for a few, stalking a strong person allows them to think they are strong, too.

For trolls, any response is ‘recognition’; they are unable to distinguish between irritation and admiration; their ego grows directly in proportion to the response, regardless of the form or content of that response.

Trolls, rather surprisingly, dispute this, claiming that it’s a game or joke; this merely confirms the diagnosis; how sad do you have to be to find such mind-numbingly trivial timewasting to be funny?

Remember that trolls are cowards; they’ll usually post just enough to get an argument going, then sit back and count the responses (Yes, that’s what they do!).

Troll – Angler or Underbridge Dweller?

How can troll posts be recognised?

* No Imagination – Most are frighteningly obvious; sexist comments on nurses’ groups, blasphemy on religious groups .. I kid you not.
* Pedantic in the Extreme – Many trolls’ preparation is so thorough, that while they waste time, they appear so ludicrous from the start that they elicit sympathetic mail – the danger is that once the group takes sides, the damage is done.
* False Identity – Because they are cowards, trolls virtually never write over their own name, and often reveal their trolliness (and lack of imagination) in the chosen ID. As so many folk these days use false ID, this is not a strong indicator on its own!
* Crossposting – Any post that is crossposted to several groups should be viewed as suspicious, particularly if unrelated or of opposing perspective. Why would someone do that?
* Off-topic posting – Often genuine errors, but, if from an ‘outsider’ they deserve matter-of-fact response; if genuine, a brief apposite response is simply netiquette; if it’s a troll post, you have denied it its reward.
* Repetition of a question or statement is either a troll – or a pedant; either way, treatment as a troll is effective.
* Missing The Point – Trolls rarely answer a direct question – they cannot, if asked to justify their twaddle – so they develop a fine line in missing the point.
* Thick or Sad – Trolls are usually sad, lonely folk, with few social skills; they rarely make what most people would consider intelligent conversation. However, they frequently have an obsession with their IQ and feel the need to tell everyone. This is so frequent, that it is diagnostic! Somewhere on the web there must be an Intelligence Test for Trolls – rigged to always say “above 150″

@robichaud1 The answer is yes to all of your questions.

Thanks dude! Dont worry about bombing at first, it happens. I still bomb occasionally. Its just like playing music, sometimes you will just have a shitty set, and nothing works right like it usually does. My advice would be to write a killer 5 minutes, and practice the shit out of it. Do some open mic nights, build your confidence up from there………….Getting to work with Norton for 5 sold out shows was unbelievable, and I will say was one of the highlights of my life.

@ Will and Surly: My wife is 7 years younger than me and a part time model, so she keeps me young lol

I think it is definitely time to put this thread to rest……………… I like turtles.

What makes you such a painful dullard, is the fact that you need every reference spelled out for you, thus completely killing the funny of it.
