Reply #16: I've met a pretty good archetype for this guy.

[laheina]

He was a DU troll, and seemed so proud of himself that he wanted to tell me all about it all the time. I had never heard of DU before then.

He was pretty much antisocial, yet seemed to think himself superior. Nobody could stand this guy. At the same time, he had a completely unhealthy preoccupation with Drudge. He couldn't wait to throw the smarmy kind of slander bytes at other people in the office.

Before the last presidential primaries, he was always asking me about Kerry. When I would tell him that I was for Dean, he would get this glassy eyed look, because Drudge hadn't said anything about *him* that day. He didn't have any ammunition.

In short: he was a waste. It was just sad to watch.
