Driving off someone from being online, as a troll, because it gives you a thrill.

This is an awfully specific flex, but it is a flex nonetheless, that people do feel to boast about. Because it’s just another form of a power-trip. Congratulations, you’ve driven away someone who could’ve been a contributory member of a community to make yourself feel better by orchestrating lies, performing witch hunts and huddling with your troll buddies in ways to figure out how to process this.

There’s nothing prideful about this to flex over.

      I kinda do love saying that sarcastically though. But with the context that I’m vegan and really dislike the sad little side salads that some restaurants offer as their only vegan option. Gimme some lentils or beans dammit!

        Lentils? Beans!?

        Best I can do is parsley. Oh, wait! I think the bar has fresh mint for their mojitos…

      Some dude try pulling that one on me at Publix greenwise. For reference I’m 6’6 and~250lbs. and much more athletic then. Looked him dead in his eye and said “maybe I like my rabbit food.” Dude looked like he hadn’t seen a vegetable on his plate in years.
