Or just do what I did -- twit-filter the little twerps.  The things that make
them maddest are that (a) you struck before they did & (b) whatever they say in
reply is of absolutely 0 consequence to the target (as they are themselves),
since they know full well that the person they're trying their damnedest to
arouse with their moronic little childishness will Never Even See It.

Makes 'em madder than all hell, & frustrated even more than that, which I
personally figure to be a quite suitable punishment. }}:)
