dmac, it's trolling because Mark G and marcos are saying how they hate film threads because people always say bad things about films they like, then sarahell calls the single example they give a "piece of shit" with no further comment. It's funny and it's a bit mean and you cannot tell if it's serious or not, this is what trolling is like, obv explaining it to death does not make it more funny, but anyway

I actually think burrito generation might be a new troll
nope not a troll! I've been an off-and-on ilxr since around 9/11. was del griffith before I impulsively decided to ditch that handle a few months ago. I liked Karl's paint sale fundraiser idea, and I do like me a good donation match opportunity, and I did like the paintings too, but I've got enough of those at home already so I thought I'd see if I could use my donation for something a little more unique/creative/provocative. it's not because the handle Karl Malone offends me personally, but it does have a vaguely questionable ironic lol flavor to it especially in a social justice context you've gotta agree! more the sort of thing you'd expect of a 4channer or a boogaloo boi. and no I'm not certain how the dynamic would change if you were black or I was black, cause we're not.
anyway, $100 was sent with the intent you'll match it and send it on to your chosen bail fund.

Now either she *knows* why they're ludicrous suggestions or she's so deep in her own game she can't see the ludicrousness. The outside observer's uncertainty is a very troll-like situation
― HOOS on first (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 15 August 2019 14:25 (one year ago) bookmarkflaglink
Schrödinger stuff, from outside yes
but does it rely on whether or not *she* is aware of the ludicrous uncertainty in order to be trolling (as i type it out it seems obvious that it does)

"a thing that stands up to no logic scrutiny or could even be a sincere belief beyond the desire to get a rise out of people" depends a lot on the individual oftentimes u have two ppl who both think the other person is trolling bc neither are capable of imagining a different perspective

― HOOS on first (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 15 August 2019 14:31 (one year ago) bookmarkflaglink
you will ofc be aware that in such a designation the other variable is the observer's capacity for befuddlement
allow me to further muddy water by suggesting an advance troll technique:
the observer so puzzled by whether or not something is a troll or not that any third party onlooker (and indeed the original subject, the suspected troll themselves) might wonder whether or not the perplexed-possible-trollée is not infact a faux-trolled-troll
fuckit mordy got in there

― phil neville jacket (darraghmac), Thursday, 15 August 2019 14:33 (one year ago) bookmarkflaglink
we shall, possibly, have to lurk under that bridge when we come to it
For there to be trolling, intent is paramount. Except, of course, the most successful specimens rely on the trollee's structural inability to reliably decipher the troll's exact intentions. In other words, the best trolling may or may not be an instance of trolling at all.
Apologies for restating the obvious.
