Jackie was such a troll back on that usenet; that noob didn't even recognize she was being ironic. Maybe next time Sam will see it and laugh.
Sam is learning, but he acts as such a troll and stirs up so much controversy on the abortion boards it is a real turnoff to me.
Sam's page got trolled (verb, past tense) by those kids, and it made me crack up because he's so uptight, and they made him look slow and loser-ish by comparison.
