You’re welcome. If you are asking me what’s kinda gross about a joke that equates liking a post with a teenage girl getting pregnant, I’m afraid I don’t explain that type of stuff. It always turns out frustrating because the only people who need the explaining are utter morons. ---

It always turns out frustrating because the only people who need the explaining are utter morons. No teenage girl got pregnant. Besides, lots of teenage girls get happily pregnant. So you are saying the idea of a teenager getting pregnant is kinda gross. Nice attitude. You know what my point is. Anyone can find a reason to get upset at anything. Let’s not do that here on the dope. No group or person was disparaged. ---

All I said was that it was gross. And gross in an unfunny way. You can pin the SJW on someone else because I didn’t mention “disparage” at all. ---

Sorry guys, I had to connect face with palm because of the new thread on what’s his face. It had nothing to do with your argument. I happen to think one of you is correct. I’m still riveted anyway, this is an edifying back and forth. ---

This is the proper forum to discuss trolling? I thought so. I’d like to introduce you to a newly discovered form of trolling. \*\*Hysteria trolling. \*\*That’s trolling with a “wet your pants” level of panic and of course, little tantrums. Hysteria trolling. Let’s solve for H, the hysterical troll factor. Locally, H-trolls trolled the warden into a half-day long \*\*snipe hunt \*\*by insisting, over and over, that there was something illegal somewhere. So the warden looked. But there was nothing illegal anywhere. No bodies in the closet, no stolen money, not even an unpaid parking ticket. Did the hysterics stop? No. The H-trolls continued to troll the warden after he declared nothing was found. Because no one had checked under their beds. So the warden patted the H-trolls on their head and offers to look under their beds, just to keep them safe. Round 2. Bed Checks After the H-Trolls lined up asking their bed be checked, and their closets too please. The bed checks began. Result, **no monsters** found under any of the beds in the institution. Just dust balls, old dinners, underwear and a few nasty books. After all those fucking hours of searching, not one monster was found. H-trolling’s first day had not gone well for the hysterics. So many H-Troll tears metal started rusting. They aren’t caustic, but the volume of them did raise the sea level slightly. As far as **internet epic** , I can’t find another example of 10 or so people H- trolling a warden out of a half-day’s work. This is truly epic trolling by this new breed of troll. the H-trolls. A subspecies of durper. Hysteria Trolling. Epic. ---

> [@digs](#): > > Can you include a link? I’ve gotta see the snipe hunt, or at least what started it. [He’s desperately trying to reframe what happened.](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=856568) He was profoundly shitty to Chimera, and really shitty to a few other people. Chimera left the board, apparently because Morgenstern was getting away with his shittiness, and started a thread to that effect. The moderators and admins spent awhile debating whether his despicable behavior broke a bright-line rule (and, I suspect, whether the general “don’t be a jerk” rule should be invoked). They looked for a case where he could be sanctioned, and appear pretty disappointed not to have found one, but decided that he’d successfully stayed just this side of the bright-line rules, so he faced no sanctions. They added that he shouldn’t count it as a victory, though, and Bone and Colibri spoke to him more harshly than I think I’ve ever seen them speak to a poster before. In response, Morgenstern thought and thought and thought, and finally constructed his idiotic new theory about hysteria trolling, deciding that since mods hadn’t found a bright-line rationale for banning him, the complaints about what a festering pustule he’d been were meritless. I’m not even convinced that he buys his own theory. I doubt anyone else does. ---
