Note: This a thread about real life trolls; it is not a troll thread. I made this thread for the srs discussion of IRL trolls because it’s a p good topic imo.

Also I know ED has an article and a list of IRL trolls. I did not copy that list. You’ll notice about half of the poll options are listed on the ED page, because some IRL trolls are just so obviously IRL trolls, naturally I would think of them as well. Over half of their list aren’t really good examples of IRL trolls imo, so most of them aren’t on here.

Anyway, back in the 90’s when video stores still rented vhs, there was this place that’d display the movie boxes and they’d have a little numbered tag in them you’d take to the counter if you wanted to rent it. One day me and my buddy decided it’d be pretty funny to switch those tags around. Usually we’d switch the kids movies with things like Showgirls, and Basic Instinct and softcore porn, etc.

Eventually we went in there and they put up signs telling people to check their movies before they left; epic lulz ensued.
