I was about to say that you're less of a troll than a bore, but then I decided to look up the definition of troll. Here's what Wikipedia says:
An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion.
Ok, so we have:
- controversial
- inflammatory
- irrelevant
- off-topic
Are you controversial? No.
Inflammatory? Hardly.
Irrelevant? Quite.
Off-topic? Most of the time.
However, most users here who have more than a few hundred posts (hardcore frinkers excepted) are guilty of being irrelevant and off-topic much (if not most) of the time. I don't know about you, but that's what I keep coming back for--people's off-topic discussions are always more interesting than the Morrissey-related ones.
In short, most of us are trolls. There's nothing wrong with that.
And you seem to enjoy being that.
