How in Earth was that username still available for a troll to grab? It seems like one of those basic names that would be snatched up quickly. Must be because of all the stupid white people here :D

Ok just a quick question for the staff. How is it that this thread is still open? Are you reading his comments? What part of that isn't being a troll? Do we not have rules against trolling here?
He's been put in purgatory. Note the "Trollando" banner.

 A troll is not someone  who holds positions you find ridiculuous stop misusing that word. There's almost no way to tell if he is a troll or a genuine alt-right idiot.

Aw ... and here I was looking forward to going into the Enter The Darkness section and discuss with him if Hitler ever did comic-con dress-up as Nietzsche.  Actually Hitler did play dress-up in costumes borrowed from the Wagnerian opera center.

I noticed that but I didn't know it meant the user was in purgatory. I learned something new today. Thanks.

There is NEVER sure way to tell if someone is a troll or a genuine idiot. But if it looks like a duck, smells like a duck and posts troll-like comments such as don't get all butthurt because you're not the superior race... Then yeah, probably no downside to considering him a troll.

The guy is an actual troll, though.  He's super pro-Trump and then suddenly, he's super pro-Hillary.  It doesn't take a genius to figure that one out.

Sorry we can't be everywhere/all the time. If you see something fishy that you think we've missed, there is the "report to moderator" button. Thank you.

Ever notice in a beer commercial how everyone is young, athletic, participating in friendly games of soccer or touch football, or in this case, just bright eyed and sexy?  They never show a normal drunk unsuccessfully trying to maintain balance, slurring words, or displaying no more than a cursorily awareness of his surroundings as someone startles him/her out of a stupor.  People in beer commercials all seem like none of them have had a drink in 5 years, and spend all their time working out at a gym.

It feels like most women in beer commercials are brunettes, why is that? There are blondes, but there far more brunettes. Is there a common opinion that brunettes drink more beer than blondes?

Maybe cause brunettes are more attractive to white audiences? Here where the majority of people are brown i remenber mainly blonde chicks in all sorts of commercials. Beauty of the exotic and all that.

The current trend in media is to have racially ambiguous actors. A brunette is more common in more cultures than a blonde and would theoretically be more relatable. Just a theory..

Both of these make sense.

Good one GSO.
