BS: Trolls Only Thread

Subject: BS: Trolls Only Thread
From: Bob the Postman

As a staunch advocate of affirmative action programmes aimed at promoting gay marriage in the illegal immigrant community, it is my firm belief that if there were a God, which there isn't, not even Thor, then He would hate English concertinas because they are rubbish.

\Frub"ish\, v. t. [See Furbish.] To rub up: to furbish. [Obs.]
Thus to rub, to polish up for reuse or sale. Frubish is stuff that is found (e.g. in a skip/dumpster) & resold!

rubbish
c.1400, from Anglo-Fr. rubouses (1392), of unknown origin. Apparently somehow related to rubble. The verb sense of "disparage, criticize harshly" is first attested 1953 in Australian and New Zealand slang.

Now when I was younger, a whole lot younger, my brother and I used to walk a quarter of a mile out our winding driveway to where the school bus would pick us up and deliver us to where we could be civilized. About halfway down the driveway was a winding stone bridge, built by giants with boulders, so my brother said, and underneath was where the trolls lived and lurked. Well, I never saw a sign of the trolls but I now have a very clear image of what a troll bridge looks like.

The "Fremont troll" ain't so bad, in fact he/she rather inanimate. It's probably been years since anyone's been et, except for a VW or two.

I saw a troll on the knoll,
Fie, man, fie;

One day, with little else to do
I stumbled on the Mudcat Zoo
Where many a pontificator
Preached till two AM, or later!

And so I took a turn to speak
And give a gentle nasal tweak
To those with outlooks spurious
Which sometimes made them furious!

Sometimes I found a harmless joke
Would cause some Cat to fume and choke
But now I think I've found a clue
For dealing with the Mudcat Zoo

When dishing out a tasty jest
The ones who seem to take it best
And chuckle at a jibe that's gentle
Have monikers non-monumental

Those with names like "Puke" and "Snot"
Are usually a jolly lot.
Quite unlike those who must proclaim
Their fine intentions in a name!

Yes, "EqualJustice", "SaintlyDove",
Or "UniversalHolyLove"
Are often somewhat paranoid.
And ones it's prudent to avoid!

So is it real trolling?

No bloody use, no bloody taste
It's all a bloody great disgrace,

It's worse than that, it's bloody sad.
And bloody banjoes drive me mad
On bloody Mudcat.

I'll write it out in bloody verse -
The bloody bullshit's even worse
It bloody makes me bloody curse
This bloody Mudcat.

There's bloody Yanks and bloody Brits,
And bloody Paddies having fits,
It's bloody well the bloody pits,

It's driving me to bloody drink -
And now it's on the bloody blink.
