That's some quality, totally not sensational journalism right there.

But that's to be expected. The Sun is for morons.

Look out, guys. The Sun is coming down on us now!

Externally hosted imageQuestion 4: You are targeted by an anonymous "troll" who posts abusive comments about you on Facebook. What do you do?

A) Block & ignore them.

B) Call the police. Go to the press. Write Sun articles documenting your experiences & make a documentary.

Lol I didn't even notice that. That's great.

I would love to know how one becomes an "expert on trolling". Some people just don't know when to turn off their fucking computers.

Watched this again and the best bit was when they were trying to find out who Richard Bacon's troll was BY TROLLING HIM.

Only they didn't call it 'trolling', they called it 'setting up a honeytrap'. So that makes it OK.

I read somewhere on popbitch that his contemporaries regard him as "Mostly harmless", "a bit Alan Partridge" and "cried in the shower after his first gay experience" among other things.

"But there is nothing that mysterious about them. They are predominantly, but not exclusively, men who hide under assumed names, saying things intended to provoke and amuse fellow trolls. They think they are renegades. Outlaws. Brave, even.

They are not.

The expert advice is not to engage them — don't reply, don't respond, just block them. "

HI, do you guys realize that The Sun is the most retarded tabloid newspaper in the entire UK? That no-one takes that shit seriously and literally only low-income retards buy that garbage? Just want everyone from the USA and everywhere else to know this, thanks.

I don't know, the Daily Mail is quite retarded too.

I'd say The Sun is more retarded, though. the Daily Mail is just angry at everything.

The Daily Mail is nothing compared to The Sun/News of The World. Basically if it's owned by Rupert Murdoch it's not good for anything but wiping your arse if you're caught at a festival without any toilet paper. Don't read it.

This just in, folks, if you are an internet troll, you are British.

> They live in the shadows — so they really won't like being caught in The Sun

That was a pretty cool closing line, except that computer screens are a source of light, so no real internet troll lives in the shadows.

Hi. I think that was entirely the point. This type of 'journalism' is absolutely ridiculous. If it wasn't self-evident to everyone that isn't from UK at this point then you must be completely brain-dead.

You're right, spending the occasional 20p is such a huge loss.

@previous (Killer Lettuce !!iNo3FkiZx)
What are you, an idiot? Spending 20p 5 times means you've spent £1. Now. Do I want to spend £1 helping to fund some idiot columnist writer? Or will I keep my few £££ a year to spend on more important things? Excuse me whilst I review this decision, I need time alone from utter retards like you.

He is quoting a factual statement being that The Sun website is full of advertisements and clicking that link will inadvertently generate them money. You are a fucking tool.
