Repeat and Necro. If you repeat, you suck and should use the search button. If you Necro a thread, then you are a thread Necromancer, and your post is meaningless, or you just "bumped" it.

Troll is basically someone who acts immature, always insults people and says "[insert random thing here] is better than [insert random thing here] usually whit VERY bad grammar.
Some times they tend just to talk shit.

Now I understand this pesky lesser race is annoying us, but unfortunately any attempts at exterminating it has been unsuccessful, whit the exterminators themselves becoming one of them. Yes It is truly very sad.

Epic: A combination of ham, kittens, cake, ninja's, pirates, the dreamcast and jesus high fiving a shark, this is the pinnacle of it's field, the alpha of it's species. For instance fire is Epic. Epic games are Epic. Notice the repeated capital letter, this is a must.

You have to be Epic to see the other list of things I would put on that list, but since I am Epic in my niceness:

Pandas, bears, seals, crabs, plankton, sponges, salmon, Pimp hero, backhand high fives, over 200 cars, yachts, scorpions, spiders, snakes, scorpion-snake-spiders, bear cavalry, shotguns, rocket launchers, flamethrowers, Bruce Campbell, Terry Pratchett and fire to name the ones you can see without your brain melting.
