Hasn’t everyone figured out by now that the T stands for “Troll”? ---

I’d almost like to invite BigT over here for a night out. Take him out, get him drunk, get him laid, maybe get him into a real fight to give him some perspective on how nasty people really can be instead of message board nasty. I bet after he wakes up in a puddle of his own vomit with “Martha” tattooed on his arm he would be a totally different poster. How about it BigT? Ya big weenie. ---

Is that offer open to anyone or just **BigT**? ---

> [@Covered\_In\_Bees](#): > > Is that offer open to anyone or just **BigT**? Oh, anybody can come along. As long as they buy a round. I’ve organised dozens of piss-ups in Dublin, through various Meetups and other organisations, and I have seen lots of socially awkward people like BigT. Its always interesting to see which way they will go when put in a bar with twenty strangers and a lot of drink. Some throw off the shackles and start talking to everybody, and some fade into the corner to become the creepy guy staring at the women. Personally I think BigT would learn a thing or two, certainly more than he will listening to his parents humping in the next room on a Saturday night. ---

BigT just doesn’t get out enough. We need to think of a way to get BigT out. “We traced the call BigT, and it’s coming from inside that house. Whatever you do, just get out of that house”. ---

He has no reflection in mirrors. Nor is he visible to others in Skype or Chatroulette. ---
