Semantics, the trolls last resort.
Eric StevensIt's very simple. If you use the wrong word or term, it's an error. If they use the wrong word or term, and you call them on it, it's "trolling" and "semanitics".
You don't understand the meaning of semantics, either.
The ironic thing about Popinjay writing "Semantics, the trolls [sic] last resort" is that "semantics" is about the meaning of words and phrases in a particular context. So, what he's saying is that "The meaning of words is the troll's last resort." To pay attention to the meaning of words and phrases is, according to Popinjay, trolling.
He, in that area, does avoid trolling.
