This is a false statement, born out of ignorance.

I always see that in the “former bully” and “former troll” things people write- “I never actually wanted to hurt anyone” or words like that. But I don’t understand- what power or winning is possible unless someone is being hurt or upset by your actions? I don’t doubt your or their sincerity, I’m more interested in the…

“Back in ‘09, when io9 ran an article about the RLSH [real-life superhero] movement, commenter Garrison Dean jokingly stated his intent to start a villainous organization, ROACH (the Ruthless Organization Against Citizen Heroes) in retaliation. I was immediately on board with the idea and signed up, creating a…

Basically trolls just had some issues/needed to mature. Plus, they were the low person on the “Chain of Screaming” totem poll.

Oddly enough, as I read through these confessions, my snarky inner-monologue (“You got me monologging!”) was thinking, “boo hoo, my home life was bad so I took it out on others.”

Then it hit me: I did the same damn thing long ago in high school. There was no Internet, just home phones and hallway gossip. But the damage…

What if the trolls are trolling about quitting?

No, you’re doing it all wrong! You have to use virgin’s blood for blush and lipstick for a truly youthful glow.

Yep, a makeup table is great if you have the counter space for it. The point of that tip is less about what you put the makeup in, and more to just keep stuff separate.

That’s a great routine. Sadly for those of us with bad skin it takes way longer. I have so many active spots and scars that the concealer step can take 10 minutes on its own. And I’m able to line my eyes but between my poor eyesight (which means I have to bring my face right next to the mirror) and clumsiness, I have…

So, I really enjoy most of the skewering that Simmons gets on Deadspin because he’s eminently skewerable, but... is there anyone at ESPN even half as human as he is? I realize that this is a pretty low bar to clear and that it’s his defining schtick, but at the same time, he’s actually pretty tolerable as an…

Okay so thank you for this: this is the kind of thing that makes jezzie good. My mother is a clinical narcissist (not sure of the exact diagnosis name but basically her psychologist told me and then was just like okay peace out now). My whole life I’ve struggled with understanding why she would continually reject me…

Fans of ancient history will remember that Keith Olbermann first left ESPN in 1997 after he made an unauthorized appearance on Craig Kilborn’s Daily Show.

Anyway, Ultron is born and “murders” Jarvis

I totally missed the original post, but I would have definitely shared this joyful moment, one of my few trolling experiences.

Or, you know, any typical day on 4chan.

I love him.

@Adam Dachis: Aw, thanks! I feel so honored.
