    "Write a short story about a man who trolls Internet graphic design forums."

    Gabriel was a lonely man. He spent most of his time on the computer, trolling graphic design forums. He loved looking at the work of other designers and picking apart their work. He would find flaws in their designs and point them out to anyone who would listen.

    Gabriel was happy in his little world of trolls and designers. He didn't need anyone else. But one day, he came across a design that was so perfect, so flawless, that he couldn't find anything wrong with it. He was mesmerized by it.

    He looked at the design over and over again, trying to find something, anything, that he could nitpick. But he couldn't. It was perfect.

    He became obsessed with the design and the designer who made it. He started stalking their online presence, trying to figure out who they were. He wanted to know everything about them.

    But the more he learned, the more he realized that he would never be able to find fault in their work. They were just too good. And that made Gabriel feel even more alone.

    • Thought for sure that 'foam pit' would be mentioned at least oncemisterhow
