Sounds of Thunder: NBA Playoffs, tis the season to be trolling...

Maybe it’s my age, or maybe it’s the way I was brought up, but I don’t get internet trolling.

I don’t understand where the thrill comes from, hiding behind a keyboard and upsetting complete strangers. The last time I checked, games were still decided on the court and not by impudent blowhards ranting on the internet, so what exactly is the point? I honestly see more value in the ridiculous sport of cow chip throwing than the time wasted by trolls.

Webster’s definition of internet trolling:

4. a : to antagonize (others) online by deliberately posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments or other disruptive content.
