From: SpeedYoshi | #035 No, that's definitely just being a dick. If it's something that most people would feel is justifiable to get angry over, then it's not really trolling. The key to trolling is that your target is humiliated through their own reaction. -- Ace Detective in Sir Chris' Police http://i54.tinypic.com/2sb25hu.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

lol at mer trying to pretend that this topic wasn't spawned as a result of him being butthurt
i trolled him like 2 days ago then, because i legitimately felt bad because he's an insecure mess, i admitted to trolling and apologized he replies by saying i wasn't trolling i'm just a dick and now this exact topic pops up 2 days later? when literally nobody uses the word troll in real life?

From: ExThaNemesis | #041 Once he realizes that the persona he was mad at earlier for saying all this dumb stuff was a fake, he shouldn't care about it anymore. After that, he can still be mad at you for trolling him in the first place, but that is beyond the scope of the original trolling. -- _foolmo_ 'but that statement is something only an Aspergers patient would say' - UltimaterializerX ...

From: ExThaNemesis | #077 On individual actions, there is no line. There is a clear distinction between trolling and just being a dick, as mer and I have explained. But you can be both a troll (someone who trolls sometimes) and a sociopath (someone who doesn't give a **** about others) at the same time. Or you could be just a troll... or just a sociopath. I dunno where the line would be in defining whether you are a troll or not, I guess that's more up to you. -- _foolmo_ 'I love you so much' - SineNomine ... Copied to Clipboard!

From: ExThaNemesis | #089 No, because putting alarm clocks all over his room was done to specifically ruin his day. There was nothing insincere about it. The guy could've gone right up to the roommate's face and said "I hid alarm clocks all over your room to drive you crazy" and it wouldn't help anything because the roommate would STILL have to spend all night looking for the alarm clocks and his day would STILL be ruined.

From: Rad Link 5 | #067 when a cat craps in a litter box and doesn't bury it, it knows it's being a dick its instinct for them to bury it, not doing so means they're purposely sending you a message we also babysat a cat when i was a kid and our friends moved (we kept it until they could settle in at their new house) and it maliciously attacked my dad and nobody else the entire time we had it. it would jump into bed with my dad and attack him while he was asleep. it was the sweetest cat to me and everyone else in the family. it scratched my dad badly enough that he had to be hospitalized for cat scratch fever. the thing is, it never attacked my dad in front of anyone so he looked like a tard when he talked about how much he hated the cat since nobody believed him until the bad scratch. that cat knew what he was doing. my dad got trolled. -- http://www.thejetsblog.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/himommangold_thumb.jpg ...
