Concern troll
The ironies of a guy who wants to see Elizabeth Edwards die to help another woman achieve the Presidency now lecturing yet another woman on how she's in turn offending a guy with her loose talk about still other women are just too complex even for me.
It's reasonably clear that evey medium develops its own lingo. For blogs, these are, inter alia, concern troll.
Which is how I'd describe this poster.
The terms diary pimping, blog whoring, whatever, serve to both desrcibe a given, clearly defined behavior and to show disapproval of it. Thing is, you don't just post a stub on Blog A with a teaser that you have to go to Blog B to read the rest. Since blog traffic also has economic implications, it's at best gravely discourteous and at worst a form of stealing.
So yeah, if the lingo of blogs disturbs you so much, you either need to learn how to ignore stuff - like I ignore the "If you don't support Hillary you're a white supremacist" drool - or start reading newspapers again. Me, personally, if I offend sme vindictive, delirious guttersnipe like Holland, I really don't give a flying fuck about it.
And now, watch Holland spin a whole new sense of pseudo-racial offense from the words 'concern troll' or 'guttersnipe'. Whatever, fucktard.
