Just to be geeky and remind everyone what 'internet troll' really means:

That's where the idea came from, pulling "bait" through an internet forum in hopes of getting "bites" then keep 'em on the line with taunts and insults. Of course, the therm has been degraded by misuse when people apply the term to anyone who simply disagrees with them without candy coating it, or are merely of an opposing political ideology.

The bridge troll image was to put a face on trolls.

I wish we had some characters like that again.

I believe in expressing one's intellect, and also one's eccentricity----and doing so without insulting people.


Haha. I haven't checked this place for months now. Hehe. it's making me dizzy to write in a straight line too. Never the less, i've written a plus 3.3 million word longest long form free verse poem in the history of humankind, in 42 months with 745 MacroVerses now; and a Bible in the 74th MacroVerse now that totals 1,109,569 words as of the 73rd MacroVerse, since start of writing the first MacroVerse on Memorial Day of 2016; sure, about 9 months to birth a baby bible 1.5 times bigger than the old King James thingy; now named, "Nether Land Bible 2017", with that title inspired by an X-Moderator from the Wrong Planet, named Sallamandrina (Leah), who lives in the Netherlands now; the only person I remain in contact from here now from way back, in 2010.

And an amusing part of that is; I write in real time on Facebook at 130 thousand words a month as verifiable in totals of 15K words per MacroVerse twice a week; hehe and by dividing 1,109,569 words by 73 too at precisely an average of 15,199.9452 words a MacroVerse and nah; not bragging; just love all symbols as Hyperlexic born and thriving now, still too..;)

I'm also up to almost 7,000 miles of dancing a martial arts and ballet free style mix of metro public dance, in 42 months; where just a few weeks ago a group of women in a car driving by at the Dance Hall I frequent once a week, coming into 147 weeks of dance with all the college age folks there; yes, the young women asked me for my autograph and asked me to take my shirt off; humorous as hell to me of course; almost old enough to be their Grand Dad at age 56, now. And no, I didn't take my shirt off or give them an autograph; just a selfie with them when they stuck their head out of their car window. And sure, I have evidence of it clearly still as my Long Form Poem is illustrated with about 100K photos too; yes, literally that many in total.

Generally speaking, I am named by the general audience
of local folks as a Dance Legend/Folk Hero, after being a
shut-in for 66 months with a synergy of 19 life threatening medical disorders.

Transformations and miracles are real for those who just do them without restraint.

Anyway, I don't do the limits or expectations of a 'so called intelligent society now'. In fact, now, i leg press 1020 Lbs at 33 repetitions on a very difficult parallel leg press machine, too, at my military station gym, with my arms raised in the air like a ballerina still too; getting stronger as i go, as my cat leaped to the table when he was close to 20 years old too; which is much much older than me in cat age now; haha.

Bringing it back to topic; it's almost impossible to fix any large social group as humans in natural state of being range from closed minded to totally open minded like me and able to do anything they set their mind to in creating their life as legend or couch potato still.

i fixed myself.

I can't imagine a better way
to live life than fixing yourself.

Whole; free; self-actualized
in wonder and amazement at
the beauty of life; basically
reborn as a phoenix
rising from ashes..
oops.. i broke the rules again..;)

Thing is, my friend;
i am never silent
when/with someone who remembers me.

Thank you.

Best wishes and hopes for you, too.

Salute with winks; gotta get back to
art my friend as reason shrunk my brain out of heART..;)

Your friend Fred aka Aghogday; when Another Ground Hog Day
was every day to me in literal hell on earth and just visiting here.

PS..

Best pArt of all; I did it all free and
didn't make a single Lincoln Cent
off of any of it.
Free only
takes
effort;
money not required;
for those who are smART
enough not to need money;
and just have fun; while beating
the hell out of the so-called system..
and totally ignoring the naysayers
who fear the dArk
and are
cynical
of thE LiGht..;)

There will be stuff that's difficult to ignore directed at anyone who posts in this thread, I predict. I recommend ignoring it here as a test.

What can we agree on?

I put it to you that the fun of name-calling, and even the fun of recalling old insults, is less than the fun of novel, creative, and perhaps biting characterizations of individual actions. Actions, and patterns of actions, but not people.


Holy cow!! !

That was some good troll bait :lol:

All you have to do is propose an attempt to stop the trolling and they swarm the thread telling you why it will not work, how boring it would be and how great the past trolling has been.

Since the election, they have been so energised, it has been like they have an expresso trump enema.

They are hillarious when they are the most sincere.

Never said anything about being a Trump (WLB) supporter, but there is a troll in chief and it emboldens all of the lesser trolls.

Besides, who said I was talking about you except you. :lol: :lol:
