While I agree with you, keep in mind the replies to that particular trolling comment are actually useful.
I personally have been looking for the name of the writing style used in certain articles posted to HN (from Atlantic Magazine, Vanity Fair and few others) since I really enjoy reading these types of articles and they seem to push certain psychological buttons making an engrossing and interesting (not to mention easy to remember) read.
Now I know this writing style is called "narrative journalism" :)
