    I am not in trinity but alot of people say that they think they are smarter? i got to an it and i have to say the people thier are alot smarter than anyone i have met from trinity. I think it is more snobby and trying to be english than smart in trinity. is this true? it is easier to be smart if you have money too I think, but i still think that my friend in college are smarter not to be mean or anything. dont thank this it is just an opinion i am looking for answers.

    thanks

    4/10

    The subtlety of your grammar and spelling mistakes needs refinement, but is reasonably inciting so I'll give it a passing grade.

    Where you really need to work harder is your general sentence structure. Abominations like:
    I think it is more snobby and trying to be english than smart in trinity.

    .. should be improved as:
    Do you think that Trinity students have a West-Brit complex?

    Remember that you're trying to stir up an argument as opposed to immediately engage in one directly.

    TCD needs to introduce a BA (Hons) in Trolling so that people can get the quality of education they desire and clearly need in the subject of their choice.

    As a former resident of my old rooms in Trinity once said, "The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about."
    But, c'mon. Really? You're not even trying.
    You've previously offered up gems like homos are all paedos and the women on the slutwalk are too ugly to worry about being raped. Simple, straight down the line trolling, unimaginative and blunt, but offensive in the fora where they were made, and hence effective.
    But there's just something about TCD that seems to sap your mojo, isn't there? Your contribution to the thread on the banner over front arch was positively lacking in trollervescence, and now this.
    I have to say, I feel cheated. Am I not worth at least the same effort as the gays and the slutwalking ladies?

    I don't know about your friends but we definitely think we're smarter than you.

    The money argument is the stupidest argument I've ever heard.
    It costs the exact same to go to Trinity as it does to go to UCD, UL, NUIG, NUIM, UCC and the big ITs.
    An argument used by idiots with no real reason to dislike tcd other than the fact that its cool to.

    It's actually cheaper to go to TCD than UCD! The students union/services charges are lower in TCD - we pay €85 on top of the €2000, they pay €158.

    And TCD doesn't have that weird smell. You know, that smell that UCD has.

    You know, the smell.

    As a TCD student I demand a better quality troll.
