It would have been good yuks had Trump walked in on that briefing. All of those craven toadies would suddenly have been all, like, could be the fat guy in his mom's basement in NJ, could be the Chinese, we're so honored to be serving you, sir, blah yada.

I've seen a bizarre number of conservative assholes posting clickbait stories about how "Sanders left Acosta speechless" or "Sanders responses SHUT DOWN Acosta" all in some kind of positive way.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Bravo, Fake Natalie! Well done, you!

Yeah, that should really impress the next "human resources director" who sees that on your resume!

Not to mention the ladies! Why, the Stacys will be lining up to open their kimonos for you, you lucky dog!

And as the icing on the cake, here's the Jolly Dumple to help you celebrate!

Enjoy your real fruit smoothie!

True, there aren't 20 troll-and-responses per article. Almost as if the troll got banned. Hmmm, funny, how'd that happen. Do us a favor, go kill the comments board at Rolling Stone, it's a wasteland of trolls, anyhow.

This is a much higher-traffic site than DB, and clearly much more troll-savvy. Plus, the commentariat here possesses a certain savage wit. Whatever happens, I'm sure I'll find it entertaining. Hate and violence, you know. We can laugh about our own hypocrisy and malice over a hazelnut-kreme-swirl-latte at the Gay Vegan Cafe.

I notice he has avoided the "hot" threads so far; he goes to cooled-off threads like this one. Perhaps he knows he would get humiliated if he went on a hot thread.

He's gonna have to work harder if he wants to troll with sufficient elan to be considered worthy of pre-banning ridicule.

He's no TLM, that's for sure.

I think his native language is Gibberish.

You did no such thing, DB is a low-traffic board, and the same old regulars are still there. You made a temporary pest of yourself, and they shadowbanned you. End of story. Same thing will happen here, except you might be held up for public ridicule first. Doktor Zoom ENJOYS fucking with trolls.

Scroll down (or up, if you're doing oldest first) a bit. He's still at it. *rolls eyes*

Seriously, if that kid thinks that the Daily Banter (!) is a nest of violence, he'd probably faint at a Badminton match.

I am amused at how this dude apparently has nothing better to do than make some feeble attempts at harassing his betters on Da Intertoobz, and yet he calls us losers.

Why should it bother you if I refuse to acknowledge your "epic victory", as long as you "know" it?

Yeah, your One Weird Old Trick with Disqus should really impress the job interviewers, not to mention the ladies.

Or at least maybe it'll get you a real fruit smoothie.
