A anime/manga that tried to usurp some of the popularity of the Yu-Yu Hakusho genre, and in the end managed to get an enormous fanbase from 14-16 year olds who deem themselves "too cool" for other anime like Naruto. It was brilliantly put on the Adult Swim programming block in America, allowing mild profanity and more violence, which only added to the smugness of the aforementioned 14-16 year olds. While most people would watch if it was literally the only thing on TV, it is very overrated and most intelligenet people should not watch it as most of the ideas in it are unoriginal and the characters are usually stereotypical and over dramatic.

While hated by most, these people are typically non-social for reasons beyond their control, and manage to get that one glimpse at society by eliciting responses from forum-goers who, nine times out of ten, think they know everything and that anything that goes against the norm is bad. There are of course the assholes who do it just for fun, but a lot of these people are suffering: people with manic (or often just plain old) depression, people with real issues in real life, or people who's real life isn't as cupcakes and unicorns as people on the internet assume.

I say this because I know people in real life who many would consider trolls, and they "troll" on forums because they receive no attention from their family and very little from anyone else. They are saints for putting up with it in real life, but it'd be unhealthy to pent up all their frustration. So what do they do? They speak out on the internet, often in obnoxious and annoying matters. The very fact that people respond to what they say is important to them, just because they get satisfaction in knowing that some people somewhere acknowledge their existence, and perhaps more importantly their opinion. Believe me, most trolls you see aren't "a poor excuse of a human being". Their lives in real life is worse than many could imagine. Everyone needs to vent sometimes.

Basically Facebook without everything but status'.

A company that bends the truth. Their customer service people both via phone and in their stores do not care, and half the time you will spend 3 hours on the phone/at the store to get a replacement phone when you have insurance on it.

Example: I purchased full insurance on my phone, and when it broke, they said that it was the battery and that was not covered.

A band that calls its unintelligible screeches music.

Random eliteist d-bags who try and rule pokemon by making many good strategies and pokemon "illgeal" (meaning punishable by mass flaming). They are actually in fact ruining it.

Sociological term defined as a person who's thoughts and ideas of you as a person effect you most greatly.
