Solinari, as a troll, you get a 2/10. Why? Because it can be difficult to make a good troll thread, but you chose an easy subject and used stupid generalizations with NO logic behind them. A good troll needs to use logic to back their argument. It doesn't matter if it's a logical fallacy or not.

Those 2 points are pity points. It's a poor effort, but at least you tried. Your execution was poor which resulted in little success and no LULZ.

As a thread, this is a 0/10 thread. If I was a server owner, I would find this thread offensive, just for taking up space in my server.

Looks like I'm not the only one who hates Vuvuzelas... Pretty much the entire world is disappoint



Vuvuzela drone killing World Cup atmosphere
John Leicester is an international sports columnist for The Associated Press

The constant drone of cheap and tuneless plastic horns
is killing the atmosphere at the World Cup.

Where are the loud choruses of "Oooohhsss" from enthralled crowds
when a shot scorches just wide of the goalpost? And the sharp communal
intake of breath, the shrill "Aaahhhhss," when a goalkeeper makes an
acrobatic, match-winning save? Or the humorous/moving/offensive
football chants and songs?

Mostly, they're being drowned out by the unrelenting water-torture
beehive hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm of South African
vuvuzela trumpets. Damn them. They are stripping World Cup 2010 of
football's aural artistry.

Vuvuzela apologists - a few more weeks of this brainless white noise
will perhaps change, or melt, their minds - defend the din as simply
part of the South African experience. Each country to its own, they say.
When in Rome, blah, blah, blah.

Which would be fine if this was purely a South African competition. Fans
could then legitimately hoot away to their hearts' content while annoying
no one other than their immediate neighbors.

But this is the World Cup, a celebration of the 32 nations that qualified and
of all the others that did not but which still play and love the game. Hosting
planet football brings responsibilities. At the very least, South Africa should
ensure that the hundreds of millions of visitors who come in goodwill to its
door, both in person and via the magic of television, do not go home with a
migraine. How many TV viewers who long for a more nuanced soundtrack to
go with the show have already concluded that the only way to enjoy this
World Cup is by pressing mute on their remote?

In Tweeting "No offense to the vuvuzela posse but, man, it's a bit much,"
seven-time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong was not alone.

Attending or watching a match should be a feast for both the eyes and the
ears. Those two senses work better together, each augmenting the other.

Sounds should ebb and flow like tides with the fortunes on the field. That
adds to the drama. Fans reacting with their voices to action on the pitch,
to events in the stadium and to each other's sounds, songs and chants are
part of football's theater.

A sudden crowd silence can also tell a story - perhaps of the heartbreak of a
late, defeat-inflicting goal or of the collective shock of seeing a player horribly
injured by a bad tackle. Sometimes, you should even be able to hear a coach
bark orders from the touchline or players shouting at each other for the ball.

There are stadium sounds other than vuvuzelas at this World Cup - just not
enough of them. They are being bullied into submission by the trumpets'
never-ending screech.

In Rustenburg there were scattered unison chants of "In-ger-land, In-ger-land,"
a few bars of "God Save the Queen" and the occasional "USA! USA!" when England
played the United States on Saturday night. But vuvuzelas ultimately won the
battle of the bands. They and the result - a disappointing 1-1 tie - silenced
England's fans, who usually are among the best-drilled noisemakers in football.

They take their singing seriously, with chants that are cheeky, taunting and often
just insulting. But at least they are inventive, too.

The same cannot be said of vuvuzelas. They are simply mindless. Their pitch
doesn't change, just the intensity. Blow hard. Blow soft. The only range is from
horrifically loud to just annoyingly so. Because of that, we absolutely could not
hear the rich African voices of Ghana fans who sang lustily Sunday at the Loftus
Versfeld in Pretoria, vibrantly clothed in their national colors of green and red.
What a shame.

Please, South Africa, make the trumpets stop. Give us a song, instead.
