Back in the olden days, if you wanted to trash-talk your buddy from a rival school, you had to get on a horse and ride across the plains, braving wind and snow to make sure your pal knew that you SCHOOLED him, and by the time you got there it was almost time for next year's tournament anyway.
Those days are long past, and like all else in this world, trash-talking has moved into the cloud. Now, why bother actually talking with your pals when you can simply text them, possibly from a prone or confetti-covered position?
