Yep. Today's trolling.
Today's trolls are simply after responses. Good trolling is presenting an iron clad argument and then enjoying watching an opponent make a fool of themselves trying to counter.
Ex. Kobes metrics are behind a majority of all-time greats. He's an overrated player.
Rube response: He's got rings!
Rings are team accomplishments. Is Robert Horry better than MJ?
Rube: Uh, Kobe is huge in China!
