The poor little onanistic frimeur seems so desperate for attention here--especially mine, for some odd reason--that it seems needlessly cruel to deny him.
So...
Reading Trey's posts is a bit like watching a clever trained animal perform--an organ grinder's monkey, say. While one may find its antics initially amusing, one grows quickly bored at its predictable and extremely limited behavioral repertoire, and one moves on with equal celerity to matters better suited to adults.

But if you don't like the term "troll," I'll be happy to settle on something else [comma needed here, dw. -- o.t.v.] like "vulgar exhibitionist."

OK. Still, this semen-summoning simian has an unfair, or at least unearned, advantage in logomachy: it wasn't born in Canada. Plus: the monkey understands Abby's psychology better'n Abby understands the monkey's.
1) "...invading my thread on criticism..."
2) "Feel free to agree, disagree, amplify, correct, or ignore" (invitation extended in aforesaid fred)
I WOULDa said there's a contraction between 1 an' 2... but logic has not sat still since the time of Aristotle and there are actually any number of post-Classical developments that would potentially dispose of the alleged contradiction quite nicely: Russell and Whitehead's Theory of Logical Typing (meta-statements), axiomatic probability theory, fuzzy set theory and possibility theory, dialetheism, fallabilism, paraconsistent logic, and neutrosophy, to name only a few...
Given all that, I won't need to explain to Abby that a) replying to posts doesn't constitute "invasion"; b) claiming it DOES lends more weight (if more were needed) to the diagnosis elsewhere of a persecution complex.
On to DW:

I despise people who despise people. Or rather, I think they're immature and overwrought. If that doesn't explain my gratuitous and repeated tellings above, search the forum to find out who first despised whom. And whose punctuation was slipshod.
