How To Be The Ultimate Facebook Troll

When I first saw this screenshot, I chuckled and assumed that someone probably faked it for the sake of a good joke. But then I thought about it and realised that I could be wrong.

Someone might have discovered how to be the ultimate Facebook troll.

After all, how simple would it be to go through your friends’ albums and post outrageous accusations on photos?

WTF! Did you seriously photoshop your head onto Kevin’s body just to pretend that you’re dating Sara?!?!

Uhhh, dude. Don’t you think someone’s gonna notice that you’re not in any of the photos from this party and remember that you weren’t even there? Why are you copying these from people’s albums?

You don’t even go to this school! Why did you borrow someone’s graduation gown and pose for these pictures?

Why are you posting photos of my boyfriend in an album labelled ~*** ^_^ MY LOVE ^_^ ***~?

Why are you standing so close to that kid? I thought the court order forbade that, man.

And so on. You get the idea. By the time your friends see and dispute or remove your strange claims, someone will have probably seen them—and hopefully snapped a screenshot for posterity—and so the damage will have been done.

Yes, it’s mean. No, you probably shouldn’t do it. Yes, I will probably laugh along with you if you do wind up doing it—unless it’s my Facebook page that you’re defacing. [Reddit via someecards]

    So, if I don’t like my friends girlfriend, how do I troll her away from him on facebook?

    LoL. I recently had the random picture finder thingy (the links which sit up in the top right and change based on what page you’re looking at) link a pic of me, and on clicking it I found out someone had reuploaded my pics.

    It was relevant to what the album was about and no they hadn’t tagged themselves as me or anything like that. But it’s still quite surprising to see your own photos displayed in an album of someone who you don’t know.

    Weird though was I was still tagged in them, so I was able to comment which particular pics were actually taken by me, and not the person who the album “belonged” to.

    Took you a while to realise this. This sort of trolling has been around for a very long time.

    Dude – This is the fourth time I’ve read this article on other sites. Stop copying other people’s work!
