Nerdrage

(Apologies for the TWO hour setback. Blogger was giving me some formatting problems I couldn't dispatch.)


I am writing this from the opposite end of a posting feed. Meaning if you are reading this, Blogger has so sufficiently angered me that I have actually started writing a fresh post rather than deal with the plethora of errors I am being fed. This. Is. Nerdrage.

For those that are new to the internet world of memebase and trolling I am going to give you a quick walkthrough so that you understand both the internet and the strange terminologies I use a tad better.

The art of trolling is really rather simple. It is posting/saying something intentionally to get a rise out of someone, or in some cases to so confuse the other person that they actually try to help you. For example:

Someone facebook posts: "I <3 Super Mario!"
Troll: "Donkey Kong is better."
Someone: "No freaking way! Super Mario is a much better game that has way more to do than flipping Donkey Kong!"
*troll leaves*
Other Random Person: "I wouldn't say that now.."

Mission Accomplished.
This may seem stupid, but is by far the best thing to do to someone since the discovery of sarcasm, and I STILL have to explain sarcasm to people, and it's 2011. Fail.

So first lesson you should all take to heart. If you see someone saying something like this..no matter how much you want to say something. Fight the urge. Do NOT feed the trolls. They live off anger, wit, and other's lack of willpower and intelligence.

If you haven't figured it out yet. This post is significantly below what I intended to write today. You win this fight blogger, but I will return with a horse and enough magnets to make your server immediately ragequit.

Magnets, how do they work?

My favorite example of trolling:

We are not saying this body wash will turn your man into a romantic jet fighter pilot, but we are insinuating it.
