Overeating
Any reason why the troll keeps being fed? The easiest way to dismiss a troll is
to ignore it, yet our very own keeps being fed again and again and again, so it comes back for more. Killfiles are a wonderful device if it's difficult to ignore a post when you see it...

Killfiles are a wonderful device if it's difficult to > ignore a post when you see it... You get rid of trolls by taking their cooking pot and sealing the lid on with clay. Or by indulging in an eating competition where you cheat and then have a 'cut the stomach open to make more space' challenge. Both methods are recorded as having worked well. The final alternative is to keep them talkn gtill daybreak at which point they turn into stone. ...d |

I am not convinced it is the most effective. James -- If I have seen further than others, it is by treading on the toes of giants. http://www.ne.jp/asahi/julesandjames/home/ |

Am just back from a week's XC ski and somehow managed to resist the temptation to start a troll collection, it's almost bad enough that Franklin Mint can be forgiven! ;-/ Did bring back a couple of kilos of festive pickled herring though, and Word Of The Week is given to "Julstress", which means exactly what you might think (once you've remembered to pronounce the 'j' as a 'y').
