Creative writing student? Creative writing student? 
I still can’t get over that one. And it is stirring up insecurities. Troll? People will accuse others of being trolls for any and every ridiculous reason. But, creative writing student? That’s out there!
And in this thread be, almost, 100% correct.
Heh..
The Venn diagram of new posters sharing deeply personal sensational stories and new trolls sharing deeply personal sensational stories is nearly a complete circle. You very well may be an outlier, but I wouldn’t… put money on it.
@MW_Degen_Gamblr, word of advice, coming into the Troll thread to defend yourself and/or engage, rarely does anyone any good. Better off heading back to Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share and doing your thing there.
If MW_Degen_Gamblr is a troll (not going to “@” him here to attract more attention) then he’s a particularly well scripted one. So he’s either genuine, or a TWAP (“Troll With A Plan”). Based on the evidence so far, and also because most people are idiots, I strongly suspect the former – a genuine gambler with a genuine problem. But I’ve been wrong before.
I do not consider him a brand new poster.
He came in with a story about gambling
So it seems plausible to me its an ongoing concern with him.
He is brusque, sometimes a little too TMI.
It’s easy to be more open online about touchy subjects. Good grief the stuff people say on this board curls my hair some days.
Yes, listen to What Exit. It never pays to give the troll hunters, pendantics any more ammo.
Stay in your thread.
Even if you had a gut feeling that slot was going to bust wide open for you?
This thread has really been paying out lately.
Could he be an advantage troll, though?
Then why did ask “Among blacks, Asians, and Hispanics…is being out late less taboo?” if you were actually asking about what White people do???
Maybe you could start a thread for this?
Let this one get back to normal.
Click Reply, in the upper left corner of the reply window is the reply type button, looks like a curving arrow point to the right.
Choose Reply as linked topic and it starts a new thread. As an example, you can choose GD, IMHO or The Pit for it.
That is actually the best method.
Define “normal”…
conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected.
Other than the patriot hoping his patriotic car wouldn’t be vandalized by those roaming bands of radical leftists a couple of days ago, we haven’t had an unabashed Trolly McTrollface show up in quite awhile.
IOW: It’s quiet. Too quiet.
That one was very blatant. One of our Trocks I believe.
Registered and didn’t post for about 6 months and then pure troll thread.
Barely read in all that time, which is no surprise. Real weak sauce trolling OP.
Let’s put it this way. That was so trolly even I figured it out before @HMS_Irruncible called the troll out in so many words. And I’m about the most troll-blind regular around here.
Do they let you fly with troll-blindness, or is that new since retirement?
He’d have to wear correction
Only if your flight route goes under bridges.
