Term that originally referred to internet forum posters who attempted to disrupt good conversation with inflammatory rhetoric. Now used primarily as an insult by real trolls aimed at those making arguments the other forum members don't like.
Although many forum admins won't allow name-calling, members often get around this rule by throwing around the troll ad hominem excessively.

RedState - The supreme court just ended freedom as we know it by passing government run healthcare.
MisterReason - The Supreme Court is not capable of "passing" bills. The PPACA is not a government run healthcare proposal. All healthcare will still be privately run.
RedState - TROLL ALERT!
DixieChic - Who let the troll in the door?
TheGipper - Someone ban this troll

Get the troll mug.1. Mythological creature in Norwegian folklore.
Dangerous and eat people, but not too booksmart and can be outsmarted.
The troll lives in the mountains in caves and can be found lurking around the woods looking for people to harass, eat og demand stuff from.
The troll verys in height to being half the size of a grown up person to being 5-6 times the height of a normal person.
It's the latter one that is dangerous. The small trolls are just devious, backstabbing and like to tease (but often in kahootz with the bigger trolls).
In Norwegian folklore the bigger trolls are often depicted with a pinetree growing out of their nose.
This could be suggest that they are mystical woodcreatures from the underworld or something or just to demonstrate the size of them.
They also have a tail.
In older days, children in Norway were called trolls if them misbehaved.
