A spoken-word poet from the west coast of Canada. I get goosebumps when I hear his poetry. This one is called 'Troll':

Wow, looks like whoever made this had his jimmies well and truly rustled. Talk about taking life too seriously. Trolls are just having a laugh.

There's very little which is serious about 'trolls'. That video magnifies any problems above and beyond hyperbole.

Having witnessed much internet trolling in the years I've been on the internet, and having known some trolls in real life, I wouldn't call this hyperbolic at all, but I guess that is a matter of perspective.

I'd say the behaviour of trolls can be pretty serious, whether they (or you) take their behaviour seriously or not, but I didn't post the video here to have an argument about it. You can believe whatever you wish on the subject, I don't really have anything else to say about it.

I think you're talking about bullies, not trolls.
