[OT] troll poll
[Heavily off-topic fun stuff] Hi folks, This is a quick poll to have scientific data on our beloved troll community: Whose trolling behaviour is more professional? (check one) [ ] - Xah Lee [ ] - castironpi More specifically, who can create a bigger mess on c.l.py? (check one) [ ] - Xah Lee [ ] - castironpi More specifically, who is more entertaining? (check one or none) [ ] - Xah Lee [ ] - castironpi Even more specifically, who makes you laugh harder? (check one or none) [ ] - Xah Lee [ ] - castironpi Thanks for your feedback!
