I'm looking for a troll.

I am a wizard and I need a free hand, partner & voice of computer reason.

In the current recession it's us Wizards & Trolls who will change the world.

My degree from the University of Minnesota has me probably where you are (My Troll Needs a Degree or Awesome Experience) - Unemployed but not discouraged.

I know basic HTML, XHTML, CSS & online marketing but I need a serious programming troll. The type who lives for being under the bridge looking at lines of wood.

The company I need someone to help me with is www.CollegeGradLife.com - Once you see it you will be able to tell I know enough to get stuff done online but I need someone who knows more. Why not at least work on something while you're looking for a job or trying to find a way to get a new one.

I'm looking for a troll with iPhone app creation ability, serious HTML programming ability & an entrepreneurial spirit, javascript wouldn't hurt either. I know, it's a lot to ask but I'm a wizard, what do you expect.

I need my Steve Wozniak. I have your apple right here.

Ummm... either it's a very weird joke, or the worst attempt ever to throw humor into a serious listing.

Actually it's just great way to marketing. First, you get free advertisement couse people link to your offer. Second, you make people interested by this humorous listing. Otherwise, would you spent your time reading something that is not interesting? No. And last thing, you can show your sense of humor and creativity, which is always good thing.

Normally I would agree, but this person went way over the top. If they had posted a semi-serious listing with a few snarky remarks thrown in, it would be funny and yet still functional. This is just plain weird.

I personally don't want to work with anyone that would call me a troll, and insists that I must like sitting under bridges staring at lines of wood...

I would fully expect to be strangled and raped upon responding to that ad.
