We had an interesting visitor on our Twitter feed the other night.
That’s the link to his account, and you guys, what you’re about to read is the most epic and brutal troll crushing exchange ever, thanks to our friend Marcus.
OUT OF LITERALLY NOWHERE, this happened on Twitter a few minutes after our radio show ended the other night.
Wow, right? I mean, the eloquence. The tolerance. The cleverness. I WAS OVERWHELMED. So I did what I normally do with losers like this. I retweeted him.
And then this guy chimed in to also express his admiration for Santana’s OBVIOUS SUPERIORITY:
Santana didn’t like that much.
Really cool of him to completely ridicule our military, huh? Cream of the crop, this kid.
I figured it was probably wise to loop those three schools he supposedly went to into the thread, seeing as how they probably like to know how their graduates turn out:
Santana didn’t like me correcting his grammar.
I retweeted that too.
Sigh. Poor, sweet, innocent, naive Santana.
I can’t believe that required explaining, but apparently a university education from Wright State and/or IU doesn’t include critical thinking skills anymore.
That’s when Marcus arrived, and I knew things were about to get AWESOME.
I’m still not even entirely sure what grammatical error I made, but it didn’t matter because I was laughing SO HARD at this point about how much of a failure Santana is at being a badass. And Marcus was just getting started:
AND THEN THIS HAPPENED THIS IS WHAT SANTANA ACTUALLY TWEETED TO MARCUS:
That was basically like a mouse taunting a lion. Because you do not f*ck with Marcus. First of all, he is one of the smartest people I know. If you’re a person who genuinely wants to debate Marcus about basically any issue, you better come prepared, because he ALWAYS is. But Santana, as you can clearly see, isn’t a person who’s up for debate. He’s just a troll. And with trolls? Marcus uses the most brilliant passive aggressive technique that ends up just being soul crushing. He goes for the jugular. Or in this case, Santana’s “girlfriend.” (This was a retweet of Santana’s from October of 2016.)
This is about when Marcus called me, and told me to get ready, because there was about to be an onslaught of lobster tweets. It wouldn’t matter what insults Santana threw his way. What mattered was that Marcus had found a way to drive Santana to the brink of insanity.
The trap had been set, and Santana walked right on in.
Now, because Santana is a complete idiot, he forgot that the photo he attached actually had one of those girls’ names on it. I found her on FB, discovered absolutely NO PHOTOS of Santana in any of her pictures, found plenty of her with her ACTUAL BOYFRIEND, and alerted Marcus.
That’s about when Santana decided that Marcus and I were a couple. Or something.
It should be noted that this was Santana’s SECOND announcement that he was no longer going to continue the conversation. Remember above when he said, “I’m done wasting my time with you?” Yeah. Good times.
Marcus wasn’t done.
Santana was clearly feeling pretty defeated at that point, so he called for reinforcements. Specifically, Donte Marvin.
Aaaaand that’s when we found Santana’s Instagram account. “White approval,” you say, Santana?
Donte Marvin wasn’t much help to Santana:
At that point, Santana basically just started tweeting more Uncle Tom insults at Marcus, because he literally could NOT DEAL, and that’s when Marcus found a photo on Santana’s IG that was irresistible. The icing on the lobster cake:
I was crying with laughter at this point, and knew the end was near. I could just picture Santana being absolutely bewildered at how all of his insults had turned into such a lobster-fest. Sure enough, within a few seconds after Marcus posted that photo, Santana locked down his IG account, blocked us both on Twitter, and made his Twitter account private.
Check. Mate.
People often ask us why we sometimes engage with trolls as ridiculous as Santana. And this is why. It can be SO FUN to beat them at their own, stupid game.
Incidentally, did you catch how Santana accused me of being racist for calling him a thug (even though my calling him that had nothing to do with his race, and everything to do with his behavior?)
Yeah. This was also on his instagram.
Anyway, I have a new fondness for lobsters today. And an everlasting appreciation for Marcus. If you’re not following him on Twitter, you should be.
