troll

Rhymes with 'stroll', it refers to a style of fishing where a baited line is drawn in front of fish hoping that one will bite. The person doing is a troller.

The analogy to a baited message hoping for bites is obvious.

I caught a fine Big Mouth Bass with a troll.

Troll

1. A word used to describe someone who has opinions you don't agree with.

2. A unfunny meme that has surfaced due to events in the manga called Bleach. It consists of lame posters calling every event they didn't think of and/or didn't like a troll.

Example of Variety 1:

Poster: ''Points out something odd about a character in a comic book"

Mod: ''Deletes post for trolling"

Poster: ''Doesn't bother to argue"
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Example of Variety 2:

Poster 1: ''Posts something notable that people didn't think of but wasn't really that unreasonable"

Poster 2: Author troll lol!!!!!

troll

A mythical creature inhabiting the vast planes of internet, creating and feeding on unintelligent people's hate, rage, misfortune and misinterpretation.

If you see a troll, proceed with caution, or you may get trolled. When you fail to recognize one and make conctact with it, you are already getting trolled.

Hide yo children, hide yo wife! they are easily trolled.

troll

An older gay male, usually over 35 or so, who hits on younger guys who aren't interested in him. When they tell him they aren't interested, the troll will often flip out and get angry. Trolls are not just something seen in chat rooms but can be found just about anywhere people hang out/gather. Many trolls are secretly into underage guys but don't talk about it unless they are talking to another troll who is into the same thing, or if they are talking one-on-one with an underage guy.

Some guys are perpetually undeservedly hit on by nothing but trolls. Just because I like classic rock doesn't mean I want to date somebody my dad's age. Get over it.

troll

Troll refers to a person who makes inflammatory or hostile comments, which by effect or design cause disruptions in discourse.

Trolls provide a valuable service by making people question the validity of what is read both on the Internet and from other sources. Trolls show that expressing any opinion is as easy as expressing an informed and considered opinion and may get as much visibility. It is arguable that shock jocks and some newspaper columnists are trolling public opinion.

Trolls are also a source of genuine humour, which depends entirely upon whether the troll is a good or a bad troll. It's usually fairly easy to spot the difference between such actions: a bad troll resorts only to weak uncreative arguments whereas a good troll will create a subtle set of arguments which draw people in with cunning twists to provide a thread of non sequitur humour.
