There’s no a.k.a about it. I am not a troll, and I demand an apology for being called one. If you’d like you can write on all my threads, in caps, that I am a social satirist (level 8), and therefore people should not respond.
The New Oxford American Dictionary defines a troll (second definition), as, and I quote, “A person who makes a deliberately offensive or provocative online post.” Please explain how humor or satire falls under this category. Or, if you’d like, simply find any post that I’ve made that is trollish according to this definition.
You also never responded to one of my previous posts, so I’ll repeat the challenge: find 5 recent threads, none of which can have been started by you, that are NOT troll threads. I’ll wait.
Even though I should not dignifty a troll with a response I will do it anyway.
There are 5 recent topics.
1. Supreme Court ruling on gun control by Reb E.
2. Jan 6 hearings by Jackk
3. Shelach and beyond by abukspan
4. Har habiyis by Reb E.
5 Recession 2022
there you have it, you joined 10 months ago you had your fun, now go back to whatever you did before, unless you were living at home and your parents did not give you internet access.
A TROLL IS A TROLL
sorryBut, what is.troll? Do you have the right to question my identity?!
@commonsaychel
Wow! I’m so proud of you. You’ve finally taken the first step toward admitting that not everyone is a troll. Congrats. Although to be brutally honest, any thread centered on a dvar Torah by definition cannot be a troll post, because if it’s a troll post, it’s obviously not a real dvar torah. Let’s see if you can come up with just one more.As to your second, thought out, articulate, searingly logical point, I’m in complete agreement with you. To paraphrase my 8th grade rebbi, a troll is a troll is a troll is a troll. However, as I have quite reasonably pointed out to you on numerous occasions, I AM NOT A TROLL. As I have said above, troll posts are designed to be offensive and provocative, and my posts are neither. My goal is simply to inject a bit of humor into the conversation, hardly a punishable offense.
I hope that now that I have explained this to you, you will cease and desist your dogged persistence in insisting upon my trollness. Perhaps you’ll even apologize, though I won’t hold my breath. Though Perhaps you understood this all along, and have some sort of personal vendetta against humor and satire, perhaps as a result of some childhood trauma. The possibility that your campaign against my posts is nothing more than projection is not one I’d rule out very quickly.
And maybe, just maybe, the truth behind your words lies in the fact that in fact, the biggest troll here is none other than YOU. After all YOUR posts certainly fall under the commonly accepted definition of a troll post. They’re rude, offensive, unprovoked, and provocative. You insert them into nearly every conversation in the hope of accomplishing nothing other than to get everyone else upset. Did I discover your secret? I’m sorry for blowing the whistle on you like that. Don’t bother denying it, we all know the truth. We didn’t even have to think very hard to realize this.
It’s just common saychel.
” You insert them into nearly every conversation in the hope of accomplishing nothing other than to get everyone else upset.”
definitely not applicable. He speaks his mind, unfiltered, and couldn’t really care less what you think. And I would guess that you knew that and wrote it to be provocative, which would qualify your last post as a troll post. Be it your first or otherwise.
Another question, though your satire involves not actually understanding, nor addressing nor answering them…
Why is it more fun to be satirical here versus on discus with your peers? It implies some level of mockery, as in being satirical and hoping to catch some ignorant people off guard. You say that that is not your goal, and I obviously have no reason to doubt your sincerity or honesty, so why the draw?Sure. When I said my roommate was a cat I was trying to catch people off guard and make a mockery of something or another. Whatever you say.
And he doesn’t speak his mind. He calls nearly everything out as trolling, which I would define as trolling. It was not intended to be offensive. It was intended to get him to stop calling me a troll. If he is offended I apologize. If I’m right then I have nothing to apologize for.
Is this a two way conversation or you just pontificating on various things certain phrases bring to mind?
Geez…..this thread is making R’ Yosef seem like an erudite commentator.
What exactly were you expecting from a thread with this title?
Boy do I miss popa
התקלקלו הדורות

according to this ywn is only 14 years old so how could you have been….?
This discussion has been buried for a long time but it is time to unearth once again the skeleton in the closet of YWN so eloquently brought to the for by @bob hample1
Try using Grammarly or spellcheck, it will make you sound better.
Debate is healthy…
See Avos Drebbe Nosson who says that if shtika is good for chachamim, kal v’chomer for tipshimI am quite new here but you guys are pathetic.
I mean there is clearly so much inteligence in some of you and you act like a bunch of bored yeshiva bachurim whose Rebbi didnt show up for a day.
@bob hamper. This place is not a מקןם or whatever you want to call it, for serious stuff. This is a place for jokes and fun. And the occasional social satire of my tiyereh friend zaphod beeblebrox. FYI I was the cat.
Hss,
Is that why your dog thinks you’re a chew toy?
PUBLIC DISCLAIMER: I do not have any connection to hashem says no. He was not the cat I was referring to. Although he sounds like he might be experiencing a similar issue.
@ Hashem says no
I mean if your dog is using you as a chew toy isn’t that a serious issue that must be addressedYou attacked me five times (completely unprovoked, I might add).
@commonsaychel, didn’t know you are back from the dead. I thought you have been vanquished already. FYI, you are by far the largest troll that I have ever seen.
Uh guys
Commonsaychel hasn’t posted here and probably won’t so you’re barking up the wrong tree
@commonsaychel. I thought you have been “vanquished”.
@hashem says no
If you’re referring to me then 😂😂😂
Thanks for the compliment
Don’t worry I understand people never grow up
You can think I’m commonsaychel (even though I think my saychel isn’t so common)
You can think the tooth fairy exists
Heck you can even think that the rebbe is moshiachIt’s a free country no one will stop you
You can even think you’re a cat!
Hello guys
I’m back – only until tomorrow
I’m a wee bit disappointed – I thought we had all passed this stage.
But if anyone has ever been upset with me or any of my posts I humbly ask mechila.
