Troll (Internet) Defined: Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response, or otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion. (Wikipedia) Examples (other than what was provided by the OP): "WTF is up with Dresden. The city had almost no military significance and yet they intentionally burned alive 25000 civilians, and for what?" "Of course you will have those who revel in the toil of humanity to find understanding and purpose - Who try to rise above some imaginary level of self assigned civility as if it was going to make us something more than we are. Sorry, but we are no different than anything else that inhabits this 'blue dot.' We are nothing - a transient carbon based life form and that's all we will ever be. So go get another cup of coffee or a cold one and try to find happiness while you can." Feeding the Trolls Defined: See this post
