To troll properly, you have to make a general assertion that will tick off most of the community, like "It's obvious to everyone who isn't a bonehead(like most here) that Java is in every way superior to any dinky little hand-rolled language you simpering fools might prefer" It doesn't work properly if you make it clear you're just expressing a personal opinion. --, please practise your trolling harder OK, I'm just kidding. Personally, I share your opinion. I think Paul Graham gets away with his critiques because he makes it totally clear that he is completely partisan, but in a very non-hostile way. Plus I have a lot of respect for someone whose basic attitude seems to be "I'm having a great party over here all by myself. Come and boogie anytime you want." It's got me looking, which is something no other advocate has ever managed.
