Most likely, yes, they are a trock. ---

I went through a brief period where I only listened to difficult, dissonant music so I could feel superior to the plebians. I got over it. Still like Skinny Puppy though. ---

“I will apologize to the OP upon her return.” Masterful dig by @kayaker in the troll thread by the supposed 17-year-old girl! 😀 ---

Come back in 30 days after the “sentence” is served, tell us all about how hard it was or how helpful it was or how surprising it was or how mean all y’all are for making fun of “her.” Whatever it thinks will generate the most replies. Trolls don’t have to be first-order rage-inducers. It’s enough that they upon up an exchange of fire between dueling reply posters, as this one has clearly done. I mean, shit, it managed to get three posters mod-noted, and has provoked all kinds of discussion in this thread. I’m practically playing into its hands right now, assuming it’s a trock and reads this forum. Guess I can’t resist. Christ, though, some of y’all are… very trusting. ---

Exactly. The reason they “found” this site is that they’ve been here for years under other names. Hence why this teenager finding the SDMB out of nowhere and using it as her place to seek guidance is so ridiculously improbable, yet it’s not weird at all if this is a person who has been here for a while and is just making up shit with a new sock. ---

Our 17-year-old juvvie calls to mind another interesting stranger who sojourned here: a secy paraplegic who made a splash, then died, then undied, then got properly cornfielded. ---

Ahh, the good old days, when the drama would stretch out for months and even years… I got my daughter hooked on a thread where a coworker/friend had suddenly disappeared, and there were weeks of rumors and possible sightings. As for our 17 year old, if she were real, I’d picture her saying “Hey, Gramps! You left your Dopey Place open again, I’m going to make an account and tell them my story.” "Ya _what?"_ “Never mind, I’ll explain later.” ---

She’s getting booked in by now. Awww. Poor thing. No phone No prom No football dates No hanging out No tik tok No chatting No designer clothes Maybe they’ll let her keep the fake orange prison Crocs when she leaves. Crocs for trocks! ---

The idea that someone is getting 30 days in juvie for texting while driving is ludicrous (edit: talking about cases where there’s no collision or injury). Maybe it happens and I’m completely wrong, but I don’t think it happens. ---

> [@Left\_Hand\_of\_Dorkness](#): > > The idea that someone is getting 30 days in juvie for texting while driving is ludicrous (edit: talking about cases where there’s no collision or injury). - How about preventing collisions and injury by stopping that texting while driving shit? That applies to so-called adults also. We’re way too lenient on deliberately dangerous driving. ---

> [@running\_coach](#): > > How about preventing collisions and injury by stopping that texting while driving shit? That applies to so-called adults also. I’ll make no argument for against the wisdom of doing it. I’m saying it doesn’t happen–or at the very least I’ve never heard of it happening and am skeptical that it ever happens. ---

I’m betting that the odds are high the troll behind this is loving the time being wasted on it’s little passion play. **LHoD** , I swore the OP mentioned there was an injury involved which is why it was resulting in 30 days. ---

Oops, you’re totally right. That makes it slightly more believable. But I’m still skeptical for all the other reasons. ---

Judges (in my geographically limited experience) are loathe to send kids to jail if they can help it. Even 30 days is enough to risk a student’s entire academic trajectory. Even a week means getting withdrawn from your school and enrolled in a DJJ academic program, which is, uh, not ideal. Probation, fines, restitution, community service, weekend and after school programs. Judges have a great many tools at their disposal to keep children out of jail, and they use them. First offenders? You have to do something real real bad to get sent to jail, do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars. ---

Judges have a great many tools at their disposal to keep children out of jail, and they use them. Do any of them involve mandating that they post on a relatively obscure aging online message board? ---

Dude who was banned from the Hamas-Israel discussion thread has opened a pit thread on the same topic. It seems he just wants to insult those who disagree with him, and even those who decline to play his sad little game. Certainly seems to be craving some attention. ---
