Hey look, it’s an Internet troll, getting all troll-ish on Microsoft. Because what better target is there for a geeky bully than a bloated legacy tech company with sub-par products. But wait. This isn’t just your average troll (you know, those Internet commenters that deliberately try to start wars on comment boards). This is a troll with heart.

Also, this troll is an ad for Microsoft. Specifically, it’s an ad for Internet Explorer 10, and the latest in its "Browser You Loved to Hate" campaign.
