if we assume two wrongs make a right and you add another wrong, is it wrong or neutral?


Well personally if two wrongs make a right and you add another wrong then you end up with a right and wrong which technically cancel each other out, so I am going to say its a neutral.

Of course I could be wrong though, my logic takes practice at this time in the morning (not enough cups of coffee to jump start my neurons).

Definitely. People said the same crap to me and all I could do was ignore. It's pretty sad how people can be so ignorant and self-centered.

I've done some trolling in the past and I honestly find it exhausting because you have to put on an act and keep it going. I don't know how people can do it for hour and days and years and never be themselves. I have felt attempted to troll after I had my child just to have fun and mess around and see how people react. One time I wanted to say on a childfree forum as a guest that the reason why "breeders" go on welfare and WIC is to piss people like them off and all us breeders get together and talk in private and plan to go on welfare and make people like them (the childfree on the forum) mad so they could rant about us and we all lurk there and watch it and laugh about it how we are getting to them. But I was too lazy to type it so I didn't do that trolling and I didn't want to not be able to view the forum again. I just like to go there sometimes and read what they post and say about parents. It's all drama.


:lol:
:lol:

I'm pretty much a full time troll, sometimes I break off for a thread or two but if post is longer than 4 sentances, I will usually lose concentration and veer off into a trolling flourish at the end of a serious reply. I think I need help.

Around years of 2010 and 2011 I was often accused of trolling on the forums I frequented. But to be fair, I was considerably less mature then and my discourse was particularly rude.

Well, I'm sort of agnostic, but really I consider myself atheist - but a few years ago, when I was still somewhat of a believer I used to be on a forum that had a lot of atheists. At the time, I had had very little exposure to science, but was going to college and slowly becoming interested in it and more confident. I had never disbelieved in evolution, but then I didn't really know much about it either, so during this time I decided to try to understand it.

Evolution isn't a really hard thing to understand, but I kept tripping myself up over the definition of "mutation," for some reason - only I was so unclear about it, that I didn't know that's where my misunderstanding was rooted.

So here's all these atheists, as in very political, pro science, anti-religion. They talked so much about how they hated religion and loved science, so I would go there and ask them questions to try and get my understanding straight. Well every time I asked a question, not all but most of them would scream at me. They accused me of being a creationist who was trolling them with questions to taunt them. It was crazy!

All I really wanted was to understand evolution. In the end one of the guys was making fun of me but he said something that made my brain click and understand the problem, which is kind of funny.

A few of them were really sweet and tried to help me, but I still never trust atheists with agendas now and no matter how much somebody tells me they love or know science, I take everything everyone tells me with a grain of salt until I do further research. I'm determined to never be like them. (Don't get me started on Dawkins!)

Two wrongs do not make a right; but three left turns will.

Well, I do like fishing. I've never caught anything trolling though; the damn fish always used to hit the other fisherman's lure.


Nice :wink:

I actually caught more fish while trolling than while drifting. The lake we trolled at had an abundance of striped bass (which we called 'stripers'), so we reeled in many of them. One year we found a striper hole not too far from the shore; we set the anchor there and within about an hour the five of us had reeled in literally hundreds of stripers. The only reason we stopped was because our baskets and stringers were full. Good times were had. :D

I get this a lot too. IMO we (Aspies) tend to be out of the box thinkers and very open and honest about our opinions . These qualities rub most people the wrong way and we get attacked and labeled a troll. Funny thing is I have trolled and mocked people on other forums and they never pick up on it. But the moment I give state my honest opinion on a matter I'm labeled a troll. Go figure..........
