Readers! Commenters! I am now (a bit late, I know) collecting nominations for Man Boobz Troll of the Year. Put forward your choice (or choices), and make the case for them, in the comments below. Feel free to make up your own categories for Troll Awards as well; I want to recognize the many and varied contributions of our many and varied trolls.
The winner(s) will receive little tiaras. But they have to go buy them for themselves, with their own money.
I am also collecting nominations for Man Boobz Troll Hunter of the Year – that is, the commenter or commenters here who you think have fought the good fight in the bestest possible ways. Again, you are free to make up your own categories for these awards.
The winner(s) here will receive a FREE viewing of the movie TrollHunter!It’s Norwegian! And really quite awesome, a faux documentary about the life of a Trolljegeren working secretly for the Norwegian government. Scary and hilarious!
Oh, and by “free viewing” I mean you can watch it on Netflix instant, if you’ve got Netflix. Hey, I’m kind of broke here. On the plus side, you can watch it even if you don’t win!
I keep wanting a t-shirt that says:
WE HUNTED THE TROLLZ FOR YOU.
I do not know why.
It….resonates.
@ithiliana
I vote we make those t-shirts for the best troll hunters. The graphic should be a mammoth stomping a troll with a woman riding on top of it, eating a sandwich
If I was giving out a personal award for Warms My Heart the Most, it would go to Ami hands down. Actually, there’s no reason I can’t do that! Ami, I present your WMHTM award.

It’s a kilt!!!
I think Zero Tolerance Man deserves some kind of award. He wasn’t here that much, but when he was, he made a lasting impression. I nominate him for the Most Unintentionally Hilarious Troll.
I don’t think so.
BTW,FYI, sources have informed me that Cynickal wears mini kilts in the summer and shaves his legs(just like Spearhafoc). 😛
I bet there is only ONE troll in this joint with a few pseudo profiles. I reckon’ ya’ll may be voting on just one troll.
He probably laughs at how much attention he gets in this place. Dang it, it’s true! Heh!!
I’m sure this place gives him a sense of purpose. Is it any surprise he says the wackiest things? It works for him people. Attention whore just shakes his head and laughs each and every time you all take him seriously. Half the shit he posts under all his pseudo accounts even he doesn’t take seriously. You astound him by how much you take him as being serious.
What would the troll do without you all? He ought to thank you all for being his friends and giving him a purpose in his life.
FWIW, I vote for NWOSlave. He has 1) the Power of Indefatigability, and 2) the Power of Not Realizing He’s Revealing To Other People Things They Have No Need To Know. Both, while impressive powers in their own right, grow super mighty when combined, kind of like bleach and ammonia.
Most Spectacular Failure: Factfinder who didn’t manage to find one single, solitary fact in all his time here. When your very name is laughably incorrect, you deserve some recognition for services to ignorance
@Shadow: The graphic should be a mammoth stomping a troll with a woman riding on top of it, eating a sandwich.
That would be frakking incredibly fantastically gleeful.
I’d so buy it.
@Bobbyjo: The group here has a long and distinguished history of identifying banned or previously mocked flouncing trolls who come back under new pseuds, and the distinct stylistics differences between NWO and DKM at least argue for two very different authors.
So, while i find your theory has some plausibility, I’d like to see more evidence.
Futrelle can see IPs (and a proxy would stand out because it would change to radically different locations all the time). I’m 100% sure Arks, NWOslave, Meller, Brandon, myself, etc., are all different people.
If by “sources” you mean “accepted my offer to come over and manscape me” then, yes.
I’d add the Rad Bromance video here, but honestly it embarrasses me to even bother wasting pixels to rebutt you.
For some reason the trolls continue to think any of the regulars have problems with homosexuality, genderqueers or just not caring about sexual norms.
Guys, don’t do that.
Caraz,
I think NWOslave exceeds many fine attributes of lesser trolls: FactFinder’s ignorance was never troubled by the finding of facts, but NWOslave is so dangerously misinformed on such a variety of topics that he adds a whole other dimension of denying reality.
FactFinder was however notable in another way: Most Cowardly Evasion and Disappearing Act When Confronted With Evidence of His Moral Ignominy.
Yep,I was the lucky recipient of Samuel’s “compliment”. For that he will always have a special place in my heart. Next to the garbage chute.
I’ve been finding NWO a little hard to take lately…don’t know if that makes him a good troll or a bad troll. Anyway I’ll go vote now!
Oh, and don’t forget TAB, the guy who thought posting a picture of himself looking a bit douchey but otherwise reasonably attractive meant he won the argument.
kiki,
NWOslave’s unhinged hatred certainly evokes the idea of a serial killer like the fictional Buffalo Bill, but apart from the character being a problematic and monstrous portrayal of a transsexual (or a wannabe as Lecter analyses him), I don’t think we really want to go down the road exploring why these guys might be exposed on evening news. Do we?
Meller is a very honourable second-place getter and his trollish ways would be even more impressive if he could cut down the verbosity without losing the grandiosity and patronising condescension. I worry more about NWO making the news, though.
Monsieur doesn’t even manage to reach the second rank (beta grade?) of trolls — he is merely a pathetic wind-up toy troll, a miserable epsilon without an iota of character or stamina. With a lot of effort he could become a gamma troll when he grows up.

The Book of Learnin’
Thanks. I didn’t know half of this stuff.
Spare me the transphobia/crossdressing hatred please. *rolls eyes*
Jumbofish
It’s not transphobia when someone suspects another of hating what they really are. It’s more like when we catch right-wingers who preach against gay rights being outed as actually gay.
The act is not wrong, The hyprocisy is wrong.
Kavette, I don’t remember Mr Pretention Name ever saying anything particularly anti-wearing a dress but maybe you do. So it seems less like a comment about suspecting him of hypocrisy, since he hasn’t really said anything about that subject, and more like, haha a man wearing a dress hurhur. Add the Buffalo Bill comment and I’m strongly inclined to give the whole thing some major side eye.
I think that distinction may be splitting hairs a little fine, Kavette – with respect, I would be hard-pressed to think how making a derisive comment about men who wear dresses (and kiki’s comment referenced the awful Silence of the Lambs character) doesn’t contribute to the atmosphere of fear around cross-dressing and transgendered people, even if it is only to point out the hypocrisy of some people who preach against their own inclinations. Such fine discrimination wasn’t part of the original post, and I think jumbofish was right to find it wanting.
I didn’t read the original post just what Jumbofish quoted. From his quote I assumed what I assumed (someone who is trying hard to be in the closet and not doing a good job, hence hating on others so gets hate in return). Sorry about that, I must go back and read.
If manboobz.com was any sort of website or blog at all, it would justify itself by offering to train one of the feminists buzzing around the site every day to become an actual real, bona fide, lovable WOMAN; one who is soft, playful, tranquil, compliant, docile, and cute! You would train the manboobzette, culture her, and offer her up to the winning troll where I could complete her training, both of us could then be happy, and we would never bother you again!
I could retire my little lady lovelies and plush fluffies (except for holidays and ceremonial purposes), enjoy my new ladylove, she could fulfill her natural femininity and allure, and everyone could be happy!
Forget the tiara! I would appreciate a real live little lady lovely!
Have fun spending New Years with your dolls, DKM.
