I just learned a great expression yesterday (from the latest episode of _The Murdoch Mysteries_): “She treats me like a bad smell”.

Yep. “Sock” was certainly an inspired term for that particular type of troll. They’re no better than a bad smell.

Annoyed is very much annoying. He’s a one-trick pony obsessed with immigration. A great addition to your ignore list.

Back to the Russian type of troll, let’s give a warm SDMB welcome to **Northeast Refugee** , who just joined today and will likely be leaving soon, for such gems as this:

> Nathan Scharansky, Ida Nudel, Felix Kandel and others like them would still be languishing in GULAG for the crime of being Jews, had it not been for men like Roland Reagan, who relentlessly pressured Soviets for their release, while, at the same time, moral degenerates like Bernie praised food shortages and one of the most inhumane and repressive regimes in world’s history.

Good ol’ Roland Reagan …

There is no _the_ before USSR and GULAG in that post, although he uses the word elsewhere. Articles are not used in Russian, so maybe he just forgot.

Also, GULAG is usually written Gulag in English, as in the Solzhenitsyn title. More properly in Russian, it would be GULag, since Lag is all part of the word “lager”, for camp. So on that he’s wrong either way.
