Worse than all that, he’s _boring_. I’m noticing all the page views with none of us bothering to contribute. It made me feel bad for him. What the hell good is a _boring_ troll? ---

> [@Truman\_Burbank](#): > > Worse than all that, he’s _boring_. I’m noticing all the page views with none of us bothering to contribute. It made me feel bad for him. What the hell good is a _boring_ troll? Yeah, it’s pretty obvious what he’s trying to do but I don’t see how he’s getting any entertainment out of it because he’s so bad at it. ---

Is it really trolling if you’re just pulling random talking points out of a hat? That seems more like your basic post padding. ---

I saw this kind of crazy all the time on Politicalforum. These people are _completely fucking crazy._ …Actually, I wrote that before I saw this most recent post: > [@How Fucked is the Dem Party?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-fucked-is-the-dem-party/672576/120): > > No, it’s not doing nothing. It’s repealing the federal overreach and letting states decide what to do with their uninsured citizens. Obamacare has the fig leaf of federalism. Let’s take our founding philosophy a little further than this socialized catastrophe of medicine **that only a black person could have “thought” of**. This person isn’t a complete fucking flag-up-his-ass looney, he’s just an annoying troll! ---

I’ve come around to not particularly caring if we ban obvious trolls, but if we’re going to suspend people like \*\*Kables \*\*for “trolling,” then I don’t see why \*\*IceQube \*\*should get to play crazy racist conservative for giggles. ---

What the hell good is a _boring_ troll? Perhaps a bit premature, it seems like he was just warming up. Clearly his goal is to be banned by the end of the day. ---
