(554 posts)That were created to troll assholes online. Although they grew mainly out of Target's announcement of the bathroom policy, the accounts have gone on to troll others like this, usually brilliantly.

(13,305 posts)And not even recent I don't think. There's a facebook account from a comedian who creates phony versions of other accounts. Mostly customer service for big stores. And then he responds to right wing buffoons who post complaints.
He started I think with a fake Joel Osteen account.
I think the account is called "Hope This Helps".

(4,033 posts)I extended my trip to stay over on the weekend, since getting an expense paid trip to Europe was not something that regularly happened to me. One of the things I did as a tourist was take a bus tour around The city and surrounding countryside.
Our 'tour guide' was a young woman who looked college age. At the start of the tour she announced that she would be giving her commentary in "English, Spanish, French, and German". She then ran down a list of about ten other languages, asking if there were any other speakers of languages like Cantonese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Cantonese, etc. I felt a little embarassed that I only spoke one language.
