I did it for the lulz

"I Did It For The Lulz" (IDIFTL) is a catchphrase which serves as a blanket explanation for any trolling you do or any internet drama you cause. If you are experiencing troll's remorse, saying "I did it for the lulz" three times out loud should clear your conscience, therefore cleansing your soul in all circumstances...(also see offended if that doesn't work).

Encyclopedia Dramatica is proof that doing something for the lulz is the only reason to do anything; trolling for anything else is a crime worthy of being trolled yourself. IDIFTL is also the greatest legal defense that has ever been used, second only to the bullshit claim of insanity or pleading the 5th.

While doing it for the lulz on the Internets is a perfectly acceptable excuse to do anything, doing so IRL can have painful consequences, especially if your attempt fails. But success in doing so will usually guarantee you a place in the annals of history, as some of the individuals and groups below will attest to. But regardless of success or failure, doing it for the lulz is ALWAYS worth it. In fact, doing it for the lulz is the best thing anyone could ever hope for.
