Any bets on whose sock it is?

If nothing else, it’s posts give us something to riff on when the board is slow.

Diamonds02? She would have to start it before her ban, but something about the drive-by inflammatory posts feels like her.

If he’s a troll, why do we still keep him around? (i.e. why has he not been banned yet.)

Heh, upon a reread, I just caught something even more conclusive. He says he \*just \*discovered “The Pit”… but it’s actually called “The BBQ Pit” and only people already familiar with it would know that it’s aka “The Pit.”

Sock-troll FAIL!

Yes, yes. We’re all totally fooled by your innocent act, I assure you. DO keep it up. It’s ever so entertaining, and not at all tiresome, predictable, or boring.

I don’t know. I thought this pitting would not have been needed since he should’ve been banned long ago.

Okay, you win this and all future threads.

Meh…

Originality = 0 points.

I’m starting to suspect there’s a website where lazy and minimally creative wanna-be trolls find “outrageous” boilerplate text they can copy and paste to message boards. DNFTPlagiarist.

For the past week or so, every time I’ve opened yet another stupid, trolling thread started by this tool, I’ve thought idly about starting a Pit thread, but couldn’t motivate myself to do it. Thank you, **Smeghead** , for taking the bullet - it had to be done.
