In ThelmaLou’s defence, I didn’t necessarily catch that the dude was a troll either, per se. I did feel he was being super stupid and probably making up at least some of the story, if not all of it. My post was just meant to highlight the emotional idiocy of youth in what I felt was a humorous way. In my own Insensitive and retarded way.

ThelmaLou, no hard feelings.

Hi. I’m new here. I’m 16 and I have a really big problemand I’m looking for advice.

I’m really tempted to fuck my one-legged therapist. She’s also my sister and addicted to both meth and xanax. I’m worried it might not be the best idea, though, because I have repeatedly caught her putting peanut butter on her genitals and trying to seduce the dog. I’m just not confident I can fill in her blank as well as Fido could.

Please help!

First things first, where does she get the meth and xanax from? Prices?

The “you owe me a new computer, I just totally spewed my coffee everywhere from laughing at your post” schtick is getting a little tired, so let me try to convey the same sentiment by explaining what happened when I read your post:

I snorted repeatedly like a sex-crazed hog.

Hope that’s not TMI.

> As a word of advice, in my personal opinion almost everyone whose first post here is a request for relationship advice, especially a screwed up relationship, is probably trolling. We usually give them the benefit of the doubt unless it’s blatant. Let the responder beware, especially in cases where the OP doesn’t come back, or comes back to post ever more screwed up details of the relationship. I mean really, who comes to a random message board to ask advice like that?

I think the real giveaway here was that the thread had a provocative title and an OP consisting of a link and nothing else. Regular Dopers are admonished all of the time for posting clickbait. From a first-time poster, it’s a sure indication that he likes to harass billy goats for a pastime.

I’m starting to understand pitting. It’s a combination of a rite of passage and an impromptu party where you invite anyone you see, beer and pretzels being the standard offerings. Nice.

Awww, dude. No prob.

The guy was definitely being stupid, but I hardly ever tell someone that to their (even virtual) face. And if he was really as stupid as you say 16-year old, hormone-driven boys can be, there’s a chance an untrained counselor could be taking advantage of him. Not an impossible scenario at all.

When I first came to this board I looked around and saw intelligent, literate people and posted some naively pleasant stuff. Geez, it was like the schoolmarm had wandered into a biker bar. I was stunned by the cynicism and sarcasm that was flung at me for no apparent reason, except sheer sport. I fled and didn’t come back for many months.

However, this community is unique in its breadth and depth of knowledge on a such a wide range of topics that the mind is endlessly boggled-- from higher math, proper Chinese grammar, cooking advice, lost movies and music, all the way to what constitutes healthy poop… in dogs _or_ people. It doesn’t get any better than that.

I shall continue to follow my intuition and if some biker spills cynical beer on me or sticks a sarcastic pretzel in my eye, so be it. I’m NOT a vulnerable 16-year old, thank God.

No matter how closely they dangle the bait in front of your nose? Bless your heart, **ThelmaLou**!

You’re in the wrong thread. And, no, yours is not a rite of passage.

Come on people. When someone joins and almost immediately mentions pedophilia, you know there’s a 99% chance it’s a troll. Either that or there’s a link somewhere linking the dope as the internet’s pedophilia discussion board.

Other obvious trolls, when join date is new.  
Circumcision.  
Declawing cats.  
Should I sleep with her/him threads.  
Should I sleep with a circumcised, declawed cat?  
I caught my boyfriend/girlfriend masturbating outside my neighbor’s window.  
I caught my girlfriend/boyfriend looking bestiality on the XXX channel.

Think troll before retard in these cases.
