Everywhere I look it's farking snark. Normally, I wouldn't complain. I like a little snark as much as the next guy. Especially farking snark. But, I fear we may confuse the trolls. This is hardly difficult but constant confusion leads to fear. Admittedly, that's not hard either, but constant fear makes them mad. Mad enough to venture out of the basement. This could lead to some serious snark. Trolls interacting, face to face, with real people just isn't good. So please, while enjoying your snark, don't frighten the trolls. They are relatively harmless if we keep them safe in their basements. BTW, spandex isn't evil in and of itself. But, like guns, it's dangerous in the wrong hands. People really should go through training and licensing to use it. I would guess that their are no more than a few dozen people in an average sized city who should be trusted with spandex. Lycra, on the other hand, is clearly the work of Satan. Snark, snark, snark. Everywhere I look it’s farking snark. Normally, I wouldn’t complain. I like a little snark as much as the next guy. Especially farking snark. But, I fear we may confuse the trolls. This is hardly difficult but constant confusion leads to fear. Admittedly, that’s not hard either, but constant fear makes them mad.
