Okay, so maybe I'm an asshole.

Look! I'm responding to trolls!

So, this kid on Facebook who I have never heard of and who has utterly no connection to me has sent me a lovely little message:

"whats lesley? lol did u just like make that up? hahaha"

Unfortunately, it's early in the morning*, where I'm at my least silly and presumably most bitchy. So, I just *had* to write him a reply.

"Wow. I'm being insulted by someone who actually uses the acronym "lol" in a non-jesting manner, and who can't be bothered to do a simple google search in order to answer questions, instead choosing to belittle people they don't even know simply to get their jollies.

I ask this question quite sincirely: Are you drunk? Or do you just have so little web-sense that you don't realize that the best way to answer a generalized question like whether or not a college exists is to do a quick search. In the ten seconds it has taken me to type the word "Lesley" into the google and yahoo search bars, I have found that, in both search browsers, the answer you are looking for is the first thing to pop up.

To answer your question, Lesley University is a smallish teachers college, up in Boston. I am going to be attending it next fall. I'd be quite suprised if it turned out to be "made up" especially as I visited it last October.

Have a nice day!"

Yes yes. I know I shouldn't feed the trolls, but sometimes it's really hard not to. And come on! he gave me an excuse to try and use all my big words!

MOOP!
