“Why do you folks feed the trolls?

I just don't get it. Replying only generates more and more useless crap. The most effective thing one can do is ignore them.

It's hard to resist the urge --- but it works! They eventually dry up and blow away.”

“Yes, you are correct. This is one of the only times I went troll feeding. Spock's rations are now cut off....”

“It will drop off the page if we leave it alone.”

“militiaboy -

If I didn't know better, I'd think you were me.”

“hmmmm. I agree. However . . . sometimes it is not enough to ignore an a$$hole. Sometimes they need to hear how truly worthless they are.

I do not want to contribute needlessly to the mrs. Radagast thread, so I will simply say it here.

Spock is nothing.

Spock”

“If you took Spock's post seriously, you're spending too much time on the internet and not enough time on the trail.

B'packing has a wonderful effect of putting bullsh!t in perspective.”

“Yeah, but how do you know which ones are the trolls? And even trolls have something sensible to say sometimes.”

“Spock is good for a genuine chuckle - what a pathetic little man he is!
I LOL!
(seriously)
hehehee!”

“You can't teach someone who doesn't want to learn. I'm not that great a teacher anyway. Sometimes the hardest thing for me to do is just shut my mouth. I'm learning.”

“I just figured I'd say my piece on the thread rather than creating an entirely new one on the subject.”

“I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig.
You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it.

“Excellent quote Tilt. I was trying to remember the source for that one. Thank you.”

“i am firm. you are obstinate. he is a pig-headed fool.

“i am the eggman i am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.”

“Wow, melissaboy - you get to all the HOT threads!
You da'man!”

“are you always this stupid or are you making a special effort today gojob?”

“LOL!

(my ploy is working to a tee!)”

“It's a keeper, S.


I thought it was 'coo coo ca-choo'?”

“We like the trolls. They make the rest of us look so much better.”

“Yeah, but the guilt by association...”

“"I wouldn't belong to any organization that would have me as a member"

- WC Fields. (I think)”

“And a Troll is?”

“hey WLD, what's up? Did you get those football tickets?”

“Here's a servicable defn:

One who posts derogatory messages about sensitive subjects on newsgroups, chat rooms and message boards to bait users into responding.

What's this?

And this?”

“You forgot this

I think trolls are cool. How boring the internet would be without them.”

“I don't mind trolls, I just won't date them.”

“The Rifle River is a great canoeing river, one big party!”

“What is a troll?
Spock is the Yang to our Ying. You must have badness to have goodness.”

“Once when I was a small child I would'nt cross a bridge near Durango cuz I knew there was a troll under it. I went back when I was older with my trusty 9mm but I guess somebody tiped him off.”

“null”

“I love Trolls! Weeeeeee!

”

“Spock isn't just a troll. On TT, if you make controversial statements you get a lot of crap for it. People play rough here. Most people learn how to dish it back or handle it with grace or they leave, in the process they may get all hurt and upset, leave or just get out of control nasty and obnoxious.

A bit of humility and a sense of humor helps out a lot. Spock takes himself and his opinions way to seriously. Even though I disagree with BacPac's politics at least as often as I disagree with Spock's, i appreciate that BacPac has a sense of humor and can laugh at himself. I wish Spock would learn from BacPac, either that or just go away.”

“I wish everyone would learn from me.”

“The kid across the streeet has a slight speach impediment in that his R's sound like W's. I asked him what he dressed as last halloween, and he said "Twoll."

I laughed so hard. And I still giggle when I think of it!”

“is his dad named elmer?”

“and another question! what's the deal with cubicles?? how do they expect me to read TT all day, when people keep looking over my shoulder?!? sheesh.”

“Id's wabbit season...
No dwuck season...

I agree pedxing.

lol bacpac, for someone I butted heads with so often at first, I now find you a true TT ally. My how things change.”

“I'm in the same boat, er, cubicle. People around here wonder what I'm giggling or LMAO at all day. I woke up the whole office playing that Bin laden liquor store game.”

“for real! and this is an editorial office, it's like a TOMB! there's a true story about some guy who died in his cubicle, and nobody noticed for days!”

“Put a lid on that cubicle! (and attach a heart monitor)”

“We moved into a new office building a couple years ago and they installed modular furniture in the form of cubicles built by, and get this, Prison Industries! You know it was the Germans who developed the concept of "open office space" back in the 70's. I'm head'n over to that Deutchland Appreciation thread and give them a piece of my mind!”

“Prison Industries, that's priceless :-D
i didn't know that about Deutschland...vedy in-ter-est-ing.”
