Trolls, Sockpuppets and Board Nazis...
Oh, the joys of imdb wank!

The other day I noticed a little trollish exercise started by one Herman Applebottom:

For those without imdb accounts, he asks:
What's the name of the old guy in Star Wars? He walks around with that cane with
the mosquito in it and created and park.

It seemed to fizzle out, and now it's back with a vengeance.


Others come in and ask if he's confusing Jurassic Park and Star Wars.
He is sure he isn't:
That doesn't ring a bell. I remember them going into a crazy bar at one point and cutting off a dude's arm, and he dies out in the jungle by those little creatures that spit.

CalamityJean calls troll! His sock-puppet, Rupert Goolosh comes and joins in the fun. Mere seconds later, Herman posts with a a "confession":
Thanks, Calamity. I was doing a research paper for my class as to Internet etiquette and abuse and you have helped me prove an important point. And it only took a couple of hours. This is interesting indeed.

As everyone knows that an "Internet troll" or "Forum Troll" is a person who posts outrageous message to bait people to answer.

I hope you don't mind that I quote your reply in my paper.

Thanks to everyone else that helped.


There's to-ing and fro-ing about sock-puppets:
Rupert...or is it Herman? I tell you what the people on this board are pretty clever. All these similarities are mind blowing. I mean come on this is just retarded. Just because Herman has his arm lodged up my butt and is controlling what I type is that so wrong? Oops i better not joke about that stuff or the Scooby Squad might take me seriously and think that they've cracked the case.


Ohhh, look! Now the twins are arguing with CalamityJean about an abusive pm one of them sent to her...will it ever stop?
