With all the personality posts happening recently, and Zafur not having too many "bad trolls" (I do still wonder what Captain Companion (or whatever) is up to these days), thought this could be interesting to watch.

I love that channel. Very interesting topic! Fine line between getting a laugh & being an outright jerk at times BUT people tend to be hypersensitive & reactive to very minor slights nowadays.

Exactly... the trolls have plenty of victims in this environment. Too easy!
