Ye Olde School Troll
u mad?
thoust choleric?
Perish the thought that Trolling was invented for the internet. I contend that, like many things, the internet simply allows for a greater distribution and dispersion of said Trolling. I refer you to Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal which, ideally, you were taught about in high school. Thus, high school taught us to troll by introducing us to an exlempary method of trolling the Irish circa 1729. Does anyone dispute that Socrates was the original Troll? Could the entire Socratic method be intended to induce rage? There is no learning without frustration. State-Enforced Hemlock Drinking is to be considered an Epic Troll; equal parts dedication and stupidity. I accidentally this post.
