It’s like the author is asking for it.

PS. if you’re hurt by strangers online and have to write a book about your “clever” ways of “slaying trolls”, you probably shouldn’t use the internet in the first place, Snowflake.

So trolling trolls doesn’t make you a troll? Hum…

Well, fire (and acid) are two ways to dispatch trolls without them regenerating. Oh wait, this isn’t D&D ?!?

I imagine that cover represents what an internet troll looks like, lounging with a cup’a’joe and laptop, fantasizing how bad they pwned their victim.

Methods of Complaint about Trolls
1. “Show us on the doll where the troll hurt your feelings.”
2. Search for the Internet Butthurt Report Form, print it out, fill it out, put it in a metal coffee can, set fire to it with all this week’s junk mail credit card sales letters.

Methods of Response to Trolls
1. Trolls are hungry for attention; ignore and starve them.
2. Trolls draw strength from frustrated outrage; smother them in sweetness and calm reasoned response.

“You who do battle with monsters best beware, lest by battling monsters you become a monster yourself. As you gaze into the Abyss, you open the depths of your soul to Chaos.” — Freddy Nietzsche, paraphrased from the German.

The best way to slay a troll is to turn off the computer and read a book.
