Yeah, my favorite one was "Where was her mother??" Right behind her, lady. Grrr.

Someone else said one of the commenters on his blog who always made him cringe was featured in a story somewhere, and from that story he learned that the guy has a history of drug abuse, has served time, is on disability, obese, can't leave the house, and this is what he does all day. Spends his time trolling news stories and leaving comments.

When he learned that it really took the bite out of the guy's comments. We assume a certain degree of credibility until we learn something like the statement came from a high school kid, or a druggie.

It might be an issue of time. Both those categories seem to have a lot of time on their hands, nothing better to do than make trouble. Which is funny because my high school daughter is busier than just about anyone I know. But she's not hanging around on the computer leaving comments on stories either.
