​@bruceownsu lol, This troll is probably thinking anyone who engages with them is pounding their keyboard; on the contrary, I feel bad for you. I don't think there's anything more pathetic than trolls who get a kick out of commenting negative things to get a kick out of people. Go get out of the basement and actually know how to socialize. Trolls are usually pathetic, powerless people that have below mediocre pathetic lives that they need to constantly make comments to put others down or try to get a kick out of people by trying to make them angry and a sadistic way to make them feel better about themselves. This is a habit of someone who has little significance in the real world. Usually the less significant/powerful a person is in real life, the greater the rush of power they feel when they are acknowledged while trolling as its an addictive dopamine feedback loop, an illusion of power. lol If you're unhappy with your life, go do something about it, you, yourself are only to blame. A person's life is a combination of their habits they've built up over their life time and unfortunately for you, you may have developed some real bad habits in yours. Improve your life instead of focusing on bring down others. Good day!
