You Know You Have Arrived

When you get your very first comment troll.

I never knew you were competing… that you were ever remotely in contention for the title. Puh-leese.

Is there a protocol for this? Should I curtsy? Give a speech? Does someone want to take me out to lunch and explain to me how I’m a grown blogger now?

      If you want to curtsy, I can show you how all of my subjects curtsy to me, Queen Heather. hehehe!

      Trolls are funny.

      Don’t let it bother you. Wait until they start stalking your site, it gets really sad.

      I never understand why people leave comments like that. It’s as if their mission in life is to spread ugliness.

      I haven’t had a really bad one yet, although I’ve had a couple of comments (always anonymous) where the person who leaves the comment is criticizing me. I never know what to do about it. I think a really mean one like the one you got, I might delete, because it’s not a serious comment from someone who wants to comment, but just something mean for the sake of meanness.

      Hmmm, looks they are trolling in Richmond, VA. Know anyone in that area?

      What am I not getting? Did some coward leave a rude comment??

    8. Sara says:

      Yeah Toni, what I quoted was supposed to be a comment to my Perfect Parent post. I decided it was too funny not to get it it’s own post! ;)

      LOL Congrats!!!!! I get anonymous comments about how I need to be saved lol!
      Happy Mother’s Day!

    10. Shawna says:

      I didn’t even know there was such a thing! You truly have arrived LOL

    11. Trolls are obviously seeking both attention and advice to which I will oblige them with the following: Take two getting effed in the a and don’t call in the morning. KTHXBYE!11!

      Oh boy. They exist everywhere. Here I thought trolls were mythical or something.

    13. Nell says:

      WTF? Is this person a professional troll? What kind of email is that anyway?

      He/she might need a title, something bureaucratic, like, Assistant Vice Associate of Trolling Affairs – Asshole Division.

      Or maybe that’s giving him/her far more attention than they deserve.

      I check everything first – then I release it. I like that control. You know. On mesage boards you have no control. But your blog is your blog and there is no need for that kind of crap. I would have deleted it. Who needs that.

      Trolls make me SO ANGRY

    15. People are really sad. It’s so cliche, and it took me a while to realize that it’s true… but people who feel the need to criticize you (anonymously, no less) really ARE just jealous.

      I love that you can laugh about it! :)

      I say that you bow to them. Backwards. And maybe having gone commando that day. In a skirt. Oh, and request that they pucker up first. ;)
