Funny thing, that...

I've never had an outright troll come back for a second comment in my lj. Not once! Now idiots who think they're doing me a huge favor by giving me unwanted advice, those I've had on a couple of occasions. And friends I get into arguments with, because that's just how it goes sometimes. And just plain weird people who make random comments that are totally unrelated to posts, those I get. And stalkers who think they're in love with me and won't leave me alone... But I've never, not even once, had a troll respond to my response to it. *sniffles* Isn't that sad? How come I never get to play with the trolls?

I can pretend to be a troll so you can mess with me XD, but I warn you I don't make a very good troll

Because generally, most trolls notice that you have very sharp teeth, a size advantage, fire breath, and ketchup reserves, so they decide that it's not really worth it to meddle again?

And that you can probably snap your fingers and have an army of sharp pointy-death experts along with those who believe in the sanctity of orbital firepower materialize and attack, like some extraordinarily warped version of a fighting game ultimate combo?

Actually, the one I think is right is because you respond with dazzling intelligence and wit, and they're too busy trying to figure out how they've been insulted to try again. (Although the other two are quite possible.)

Actually, I've realized that apparently I do have a troll. I can't possibly think of any motivation other than wanting to get a rise out of me for the complete and utter moron (http://bladespark.livejournal.com/318321.html) to be sticking around as long as he has except trolling. He was a subtle troll, and I thought at first that he was just nosy, but I now conclude that he is, in fact, and troll, so I've dismissed his opionions completely and am playing. Let's see how long he stays now! *grins evily*

I don't seem to get trolls at all. Maybe because my *collection* is scaring them away before they even try.
