There is no definition of "the pale." This is Calvinball. When things are stupid, we kill them. The end. No details, no "process," just "That is stupid," followed by "bang."
Most of us don't really get to play Calvinball with trolls. That's probably a good thing.
Jimbo does. That's probably also a good thing.
It will be interesting if the one thing to last out of Watterson's comic is the word "Calvinball".
I loved that comic. Too bad he retired.
