Why you and I exist. According to "The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy," the mice build Deep Thought, a gigantic mega computer designed to divulge the answer to life. After 7.5 million years of calculation, it states the answer: 42. Here is the actual quote, Loonquawl being a mouse:
'"Forty-two!" yelled Loonquawl. "Is that all you've got to show for seven and a half million years' work?"
"I checked it very thoroughly," said the computer, "and that quite definitely is the answer. I think the problem, to be quite honest with you, is that you've never actually known what the question is."'

Get the Microsoft Answer mug.A Yahoo Answers Troll is a troll that lurks on Yahoo Answers and does all kinds of things. They always break the Yahoo Answers Community Guidelines. It is highly recommended that you report any kind of troll. Most, if not all, trolls will use the 'Anonymous' feature so that they wont get blocked and/or reported. Well you can report their answers and questions but what I mean by 'report' is reporting their account to Yahoo Answers Team. The anonymous feature is there so that legit users can use it if they are not ok with showing their name when asking a question or answering one. But unfortunately, the trolls abuse that feature. Any troll that uses the anonymous feature will forever be a coward. You will find trolls mostly on the Polls & Surveys section. But you could find trolls in other sections as well. There are different types of trolls on Yahoo Answers. Here is a list of the different types of trolls:
- Reporter Trolls: are trolls that report legitimate questions and answers just for fun.
- Spam Trolls: are trolls that just spam Yahoo Answers with the same things over and over again.
- Scroll Trolls: are trolls that post ridiculously long answers and you have to keep on scrolling for like a few minutes to see the other answers.
- Funny Trolls: are trolls that say funny things on Yahoo.
- Insult Trolls: are trolls that insult other users of Yahoo.
- Anonymous Trolls: are trolls that go anonymous and may do all kinds of things ranging from reporting to insulting.
