This is an infected thread. Sometimes it's just fun to throw out some bait and see who bites. I've been enjoying the reaction of the EVStards in this thread who've been coming after me for saying people will sperg.
ZUb-Zub has been my favorite. He really seems pissed that I said it was a brilliant troll. He's been typing out long outrageous posts and lobbing the best insults he's cognitively capable of ever since. The other EVStards have joined in.
It's been fun.
Did I expect an actually "massive sperg" out? That depends on the scale you're looking for. Preston's troll has been done before with varying degrees of success. Vox did it first. (I don't know if it was intentional) The reaction was huge and in retrospect pretty funny. JDA did a riff on it that got a smaller goofy reaction that was still entertaining.
When Preston did it I expected returns from it to be diminished again but significant.
All I had to do was say it was a "brilliant" troll and I had Zub-Zub and his zoo crew spend the day "debunking" my opinion (like it matters) because I was "wrong on the internet".
Zub-Zub's increasing anger and the anger of his fellows was pretty funny. Autism abounds.
I hardly even looked at Twitter for people chimping out yesterday. Why bother when you've got Zub-Zub writing novels to tell you no one is being "autistic about this".
All in all, yesterday was a pretty good day on the farm I think..
