Naturally, if you portray yourself as an idiot, people will treat you like an idiot. I don't understand why it would be fun and entertaining to be seen and treated as an idiot, in any situation.

I seriously don't understand it. Trolling makes zero sense to me.

in essence it is internet sarcasm, just far more elaborate and actually quite fucking hilarious.

Actually, it makes more sense if you put it that way...

And LOL at the people thinking this thread is meant to be one enormous "troll"

If you're going to use that meme, don't put the word "trolling" in it.

Trolling is making other people frustrated at little to no cost to yourself. I can see why people find it entertaining.

It's easier to piss people off and draw a reaction than it is to come up with something intelligent and get noticed. So really, it's a lazy person's call for attention. With the demographic of people who frequent the internet, it makes sense that there are a bunch of lazy people around who want to get noticed in any way they can.

i like those well designed trolls that you dont even know got you until later, when you type out a huge response as to why that person is wrong, and everybody just sits back shaking their heads like you're the biggest idiot ever.

This thread has helped me conclude that in order to partake in trolling, you need to be a certain type of person. A sad, stupid, attention seeking, immature loser.

I'm undecided on abortion.

On one hand, I support it because it's killing babies.
But on the other hand, it gives women choice.

OP used to "troll" Media & Arts, or was just a shitty contributor. Better now, maybe he's realized his ways.

peoples troll meters are on high alert these days, you have to use trollception

the only way to successfully troll is to enter your trollconscious and post in an altered state in which you yourself are unaware that you are actually trolling

thats the only way it will stick

it's still very doable. you just need to find a subject that your victim is really intensely opinionated about and say something that will make them lose their shit, even though what you're saying is an obviously ridiculous claim. make them go the distance to prove you wrong and lose their shit on you, so that you can give them a little smiley face at the end of it and think to yourself "troll accomplished".

you're special because you don't even troll and you're still an idiot..

I have never really enjoyed a pulled pork sandwich and to be honest i'm not sure i ever will. The taste is not what makes me dislike the meal, its the texture. The first sandwich i tried had too much of a "slick" feel to it and i did not find it pleasing.

Ok, I get it, you are trying to troll me right now. Nice.

So does that also mean that all of the other retarded shit you have posted here that has made me hate you as a member is all just trolling, and you aren't actually that bad of a person in real life?

Is the internet just one big joke to some people? What the fuck. (Ok now that I think of it, it probably is one big joke, to most people. That sucks and makes me sad).

P.s. yes, the thread does contain "fooing"
