http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/16/u...-12-year-old-rebecca-sedwick.html?ref=us&_r=0 the most outrageous part of this whole story is that the teen girls who trolled her got arrested. they didn't do anything wrong as far as im concerned.
Getting arrested for an insensitive comment on fb. Merrica. Changing schools but not cutting connections. Dispute over dating an ex. Being a 12 year old. Yeah, I couldnt care less. Also sending death threats and such doesnt really count as trolling. Amd stop abusing "literally".
but they're not death threats! it's merely a 'go kill yourself' or a 'plz drink bleach'. the most threat-like part instance was the 'imma fight u' but even that is weightless. also that is the correct usage of 'literally'
Your right... it should have been a day in a public stockade. That would put the fear of being an ass hole in her.
I said abusing, not just using incorrectly. The difference is, you didnt have to use it to make a point, as its hard to imagine someone getting trolled to death figuratively.
Facebook says you have to be 13 or older to sign up for facebook... nobody cares. Girl in article was 12. Personally I don't think kids should be on facebook, they will inevitably say stupid, stupid shit and will not have the benefit of anonymity that they would, say, on these forums... *whistles nonchalantly*
One of my fav /mu/ images applies here: "Like nigga close your eyes" god damn Tyler sucks but shit he makes me laugh every time.
I read that as if the guy had fucked your mom and couldn't live with the shame of doing so, from which we can infer two main hypotheses for his source of shame: He is ashamed of his behaviour, and will thus commit suicide to redeem himself. YO MAMA SO FAT, NIGGA CAN'T LIVE WID HIMSELF NO MO FO' POUNDIN' DAT ASS
If she were trolled to death litterally, trolls would be real, they are not, only figurative trolls are real, thus you can't really say you troll someone litterally ... duh, the use of the word litterally is really abusive and could lead to litteral suicide of the readers eyeballs. Dat derail.
I really hate how much people have forgotten about such a thing as hyperbole. When people say literally even if it isn't literal, they are using hyperbole, exageration. Like holy fuck this smart ass generation can get so annoying sometimes. Thanks Obama and Oatmeal.
oh god you guys have never used the expression 'to death' before? you guys are killing me, figuratively
