Comment: I like the idea for the most part
I like the idea for the most part
however, if the troll or someone with a sour attitude is semi intelligent and is not being a complete ass, I sometimes use the opportunity to hone my debating skills. It's very challenging (in a fun way) for me to present opposing viewpoints in a calm, thoughtful manner, when what I really want to do is tell the person to get bent! I've been practicing this in my real life relationships too. It definitly takes practice and restraint but turning it into a game or an educational experience can be very satisfying. The more someone upsets me the better I feel being able to maintain my composure. I still occasionally fly off the handle and just react to something some one says to me but almost without exception after I have thought about it...I would have put the screws to them so much better had I used a claim thoughtful response.
