It used to be called "trolling," before trolling was redefined to "publicly disagreeing with important people." It's maximizing the ratio between the characters you type and the characters typed in response to you.


Is an ideal response one so thoroughly perfect that nobody has anything to say after it? Or is leaving some room for continuation good until it's excessively so?


The problem is being more concerned with the response than with what one is typing.
