How not to be a troll
Don't address a woman thusly: My, aren't we the entitled little cunt today?

That looks like a perfect way to be a troll to me, but I admit I'm an amateur at such things...

Gin's right. That's not a good way to be a troll, that's a good way to be dead.

Are the two mutually exclusive? Trollage can lead to being deadness. I admit the technique is a bit clumsy, but decidedly trollish I'd say.

I would think the key to being an effective troll would be to get people to keep feeding you without being so outrageous as to tip your hand. In that, the guy fails.

It reminds me of the guys from a while back who were bragging about how fast they got banned from Gin's blog; um, dipshit, it's not that hard to do when she tells you what behaviors will get you banned. It's like patting yourself on the back for following the directions on how to bake a Pop Tart, y'know?

Or not, as it were. I mean, if you're the type of person who views the smoke pouring out of the toaster as an accomplishment, and it's my toaster to begin with.....These assholes always act like that's what they're entitled to.

My toaster blog, my rules.

heheheh. I have now imagined the ginmar toaster. It is a mini apliance, which does not have a pop up. Instead it has a large variety of insertable mini racks, prongs and things for toasting a wide variety of different things on... only you can't ever toast anything in it becasue it is also the exact right size and shape for Morgie to sleep on and Jezzie nicked the tools to pry open a box of dry food with.

AS for the behaviour of subjective asshat in the initial post...

Well thats why I'd like a toaster that certain... things could be shoved into.

Gyaaaaaah.

There needs to be a word for these statements that are so flat-out wrong on so many levels that you don't know where to start, even.

I just...can't. I just can't. These are the same people who've taken over the US in the past eight years. They're just Iraqi. Same difference.

I think that's what made me cry: I recognized so many people from the US in that. Fred Phelps, to name a prominent one. And far too many people who are nameless.

Right up there with one of my hick cousins who loves his little joke of CUNT= Can't Understand Normal Thinking.

He's almost 40 (so certainly old enough to know better), married (to a redneck gal 15 years older than him) and often repeats this in front of his female relatives- including his "mom", who is really my mom and his aunt.

Fortunately most of my cousins are terrific and I rarely see him.
