Today I was thinking about the fact that I'm in the habit of drinking to a borderline or full-on drunk state an hour or two before bed to help me get to sleep. It's a bad habit, but I'm not sure if it's just a habit or an actual addiction. The last few nights I've successfully avoided drinking, just to see if I could do it, which makes me think is more of a bad habit/poor coping mechanism issue than an actual addiction.
But there is something I am addicted to, and that's trolling. I've been permed twice on GAF for incessant trolling/shitposting. I've trolled heavily on every forum I ever joined, including the Bore as we all know. I once trolled the fuck out of a hamster/small critter forum for a few weeks by posting multiple videos of snake feedings under the guise of "OMG look at what these awful people do!" I had some good fun at Rapture Ready for several months before they banned me.
I don't think I could stop, even if I really tried to. Even though it frequently backfires on me, I'm all about this life. This is my struggle.
If you really wanted to, could you become a completely serious poster?
-

Yeah, but where's the fun in that?
-
The only place I serious post is SA, and thats because it cost money.
-
Even Opiate's shiny metal exterior cracked.
-
yeah, I could, easily. Don't attempt to normalize it, you're a sociopath. :smug
-
Trolling comes to me more naturally than serious/unironic conversation, so probably not.
-
I won't stop until I'm effectively trolled by a kid. That's when I'll come full circle and give up the ghost.
-
I never really troll, so yeah, I guess.

You'll go to a Seattle-Bore meetup, get annihilated by Prole's kid, and head back to Michigan in a daze wondering where it all went wrong.
My kids are right down 23 in Ohio. I can easily predict my kid would own PD like an old pair of shoes. He'll be up for a Michigan game next year as a recruit so we can make that happen, captain.
I'm thinking a 40 yard dash followed by hamburger drills.

:D

What position? More than likely he'll run into my dad, if he meets with alumni at the cookout.
Do you want your seed playing for Brady Hoke though? :tocry

Broad trolling is boring. It's more fun to think of specific users (and thier triggers) and craft a throwaway line that trolls them instead.

He's currently playing RB and OLB but they're talking Safety.

I ain't trolling you, you dumb biaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatch
-
filler :lawd
-
I could stop, but I don't see any reason why I'd want to.
-
I never troll, so ya I could give it up easily.
-
holy shit that hamster trolling is genius :rofl
I really miss the days of on-line anonymous multiplayer trolling on pc. those were truly the glory days :tocry
-
It's all I have left, so probably not.
I once waited calendar years to irl sports troll someone. The look of crushing devastation on their face when my plan came to fruition. :lawd :lawd :lawd

I know I'm probably either the last to know or an idiot but are you a girl? Because 99.9% of dudes would never wait that long.
-
Nah, just not in accordance with the gender binary.
-
People think I'm trolling whether I am or not.

Stop trolling
:snoop
But seriously, does Time Dog ever post on this account? Because sometimes you come off more hard edge than others.
-
I'm not actually that good of a troll. I'm way better at flaming people/trolls. That I'll probably never give up.

Nope.
It's probably just me posting before and after coffee. Or drunk. That always alters it too.

Was it when henry went to Barca?

Nah, but I was living with a Gooner when that happened and left a picture of him giving a thumbs up in front of the Barca crest on their bedroom door. :hitler
I'll tell the other story when I'm off mobile. Too long.

ive been pretending to be a pop stan for 3 years

I am such a troll that my online persona has been successfully conflated with two other trolls

Castellan and Drinky?

I don’t troll. I don’t post in other forums, I just post here, and trolling would be like shitting where I sleep. Also: it’s mean.

Probably other trolls who don’t post here anymore.

Jackfrost2012 and Professor Prole?
-
I don't think I've ever trolled honestly
-
Sure. I don't really even troll that much anymore (well, there was that one night on GAF-Hop and a mod actually showed up)
-
It's pretty hard to stop what you never do, but I'd give it a shot.
-
I'm fine with a bit of trolling but I admit I don't understand anyone who spends 24/7 in their online "persona". People like Methodis and a few others baffle me. It seems like so much energy to waste on something so pointless.
-
I fully, 100% believe that that's the real Methodis. Utter and complete shitburger and waste of oxygen.
-
i've been out of the trolling scene for ages
-
Calling a methodis a troll is like saying Manabyte fakes having aspergers.

They weren't really a friend, but I knew a Canadian expat in high school and at university. They were one of those "overcompensate for leaving where I came from by being #1 hometown that's not where I live now sports fan USA."
Well their Canadian hockey team of choice was part of that string of Canadian hockey teams that lost Stanley Cup Finals to teams based in the sunbelt where frankly people couldn't give less of a fuck about hockey in the 2000s.
They were super obnoxious during the team's run. "[TEAM] is going to bring the Cup back to Canada." Et cetera. They even made the mistake of not being a good sport when they bounced Anacrime. :ufup
So I was watching what would become the deciding game of the Stanley Cup Final this team choked in and when they handed off the Stanley Cup to the winning team's captain it struck me that this would be an excellent photo opportunity, so I grabbed my mobile phone and snapped a shot of the TV.
Several years later the two of us were at a house party that was notorious for having bad cellular reception. At one point in the night my Canadian counterpart needed to make a phone call and loudly bemoaned the fact that their mobile wasn't working. So what did I do? I quickly grabbed my phone, set the wallpaper to the picture I took all those years ago, and said, "Hey [redacted], why don't you try my phone?" and handed my phone to them. Committing the one mistake one should never commit, they graciously accepted my offer and went to make a call... only to see a photo reminding them of their crushing defeat years ago. (http://i.imgur.com/2CppsIU.png)
They didn't even do anything to my phone or me, they just took the L and handed it back to me without saying anything. Their facial expression upon having a painful memory involuntarily brought back into surface thought brehs. :lawd
-
I've never trolled any forum, but I have been banned from pretty much every forum I ever joined, mostly for telling people to go fuck themselves. The only place I never got banned from was Doug Stanhope's, but that's closed down now. Fuckin shame.
-
i don't troll. I AM TROLL.

i mean my wife will say something utterly innocuous like "how was your day" and i will reflexively say "every day with a penis is a great day" and she will go :goty2 and i will go :heh

We've all seen the Ls your daughter hands out daily though.

I tried to explain to my wife how the trolling I occasionally on the forums (eg Nintendo or Lakers fans) I visit is different from the trolling the national media talks about (telling people to kill themselves etc) but she didn't understand.

Some jackass let people confuse trolling with flaming. Hell no one even says flaming anymore.

You know, you're right. I rarely hear that term anymore, it's either trolling or nothing.

Probably a leftover genetic trail from my father who most often communicated with "yes" "no" or "goddamnit"
In fact I thought my name was goddamnit until I was about 15.

Don't even know the guy but he's frothing at the mouth :lawd

Wow, I really fucking wrecked this guy's day. I feel good about that.

wrecking facebook threads is somehow more satisfying than bustin' gaf chops these days

there are so many levels to this PD troll game

I could never stop reading forums :(

The definition of trolling has absolutely metamorphosed into something way more complex than it was say 10 years ago. Nowadays it can be used as a convenient excuse for THICK AS SHIT posts, for example ZephyrFate says something like "Shit bro, it's awesome that young impressionable boys are being shown grown men ass-fucking in Spartacus, as it means that I'll have more sweet milky buns to exploit!" And a sensible wise handsome poster calls him out on his crypto-gay propaganda by saying something along the lines of "Shit bro, are you being thick or is that just an elaborate troll?"
Etc etc.
