Given his posts here, here and here, I believe that Lucy finally merits his own pit thread.
Lucy, you may or may not be a deliberate troll. You may or may not be an autistic 16-year-old. But either way, whatever you are, you are a festering pustule on the buttocks of humanity.
He’s a troll. It’s surprising to me that there can be any doubt about this. I’m not sure we’ve ever had a more obvious troll. He’s not even an interesting one, although in fairness I can’t remember any others who’ve feigned being autistic AND a teenager AND a non-native English speaker. Usually they just pick one.
I’ll cross-post this here, because I really want to make sure our subject reads it:
Look, Luciano700, you should do what many of us did back in the day. Join and lurk for a couple of years. We listened (and learned a lot from people who are smarter than we’ll ever be). Only then did we start posting.
In my case, I think I posted ten times in my first decade. But I learned so much.
But I’m betting that “Listen, don’t talk” is pretty much impossible for someone at your level of maturity. The problem is, you don’t advance past that level without listening.
(And I’m betting you won’t sign out so that you can just read for a while, and you’ll start posting to justify why you need to post… sigh)
ETA: I WISH he were a troll, because then he wouldn’t be so screwed up, and it wouldn’t be so frustrating that we’re not getting through to him.
Man, I remember when the Russian threat was a craggy-faced beetle-browed guy in a fur cap, glowering across the plains of Germany atop one of those cool Thunderbirds-looking missile transporters. Now it’s a some spotty goblin in a click farm off the Nevsky Prospekt, hoping to save for a pair of bootleg Beats By Dre. What happened, Russia? Your bad guys used to be cool.
Lucky is definitely not a Russian troll. His trolling is more along the lines of UMKAY and others; the kind of troll who is willing to put in more time and effort than their feeders in a strange attention-seeking fetish that is honestly a little gross and takes all the fun out of feeding or taunting them.
I like how people are still ridiculing me, what do you think you deserve for this? A Tesla or a pack of gift cards?
I will admit I am digging in quite a passion into sociology, so if anyone’s got good books to recommend me for this subject feel free to do so.
Actually, if I started posting 3 or 4 years ago, I think the beginning would have been worse. Trust me when I say this. Because at that time I still had a big lack of self-awareness…
Is also kind of funny how we have a sub-forum like this in this place, if some of the other places I post in or if I were to have started posting just 3 years ago, I would have probably made more use of this sub-forum to feed out my anger and energy out. However I will talk smack if I need to, don’t think I am easy target I will come at you out of nowhere.
And instead of having done a better recommendation, you fucked up. Gimme something to read, I am not gonna spend countless of hours just lurking on Straightdope and not posting. How else I am suppose to get thoughts out of my chest?
Y’know, I see people say this kind of thing and it’s always struck me as incredibly silly. What, exactly, should people be wary of? Are you going to type mean things? That’s not really all that much of a threat coming from anyone.
Also, you are an easy target. I would not be surprised if that was the point of you being here. If all you need is to just “get thoughts out of [your] chest”, rather than being part of a community, I’d suggest a blog. Maybe a nice diary.
