Track them down, drug them, take them 20 miles out in the Gulf, wrap them in a fishing net weighted with concrete blocks, wait for them to wake up and lower them slowly into the water till their face is maybe 6 inches below the surface, then make faces at them while fucking their wife's severed head.
Works for me.

Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

What's arbitrary or random about it?

Re: Internet trolls: What to do about the scourge of the Web
I think you're misunderstanding. I'm not saying you choose arbitrarily to have a emotional state, just that what triggers it is based on arbitrary events. Thus your tolerance for say racist jokes may well be different from a racist or someone who had endured racism all their lives.FBM wrote:What's arbitrary or random about it?

Re: Internet trolls: What to do about the scourge of the Web
I had some fucking nutcase on RatSkep make repeated snide comments about my family members.
This after he registered an account on a political forum I posted on under my real name. Proper stalker shit.
Actually, I'm not sure I'm allowed to call him a fucking nutcase, as he's a member here? But he is a fucking nutcase. And a shithouse.

Re: Internet trolls: What to do about the scourge of the Web
I did something similar to what the boxer did in the op, except it was some idiot that contacted me through Kijiji and I didn't post it to my followers. I found out where he lived (a condo built in one of the 19th century factories that are so popular in Kitchener Ontario), his home phone number, even the number of his condo in the building. I just drove to his building, called him from outside (it had secured entrances), and told him I was waiting for him in the parking lot if he wanted to settle things.
Never heard from him again.
