This is a question Driven to Madness

Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

Troll Trawlers
who crawl around threads spewing their own kind of personal bile on the posts of rational beings.

There y'go chaps, door's open, it's all yours.................

You appreciate that by starting this thread you have admitted that the trolls have won, right?
You've flopped onto the deck of the boat and they've not even taken out their gear.

I can't...
..deny the principle of free speech to them. I also agree with you entirely.

However, I can only express my frustration at seeing some damn funny threads degenerate into a personal sounding board for someone with too much time on their hands, an axe to grind and a minor personality disorder. I read this board for pleasure and amusement. I've taken my fair share of (well deserved) stick sometimes, but it irks me to see individuals setting themselves as arbiters of what is deemed acceptable or otherwise. There are some genuinely amusing threads here (not mine, either) that are a case in point.

I may have flopped onto the deck prematurely, but I hope I'm not the only flopper out there. If I am, then I'll flop off.

I think you might be confusing "troll" with "somebody being rude".

No, really. You seem to be a bit confused about what trolling means.
