Troll

Verb

To trick or deceive someone into embarrassment or to make them feel worried. Typically not serious and is only used as a practical joke.

Noun

Someone who partakes often in the act of trolling or has recently trolled.

Origin

Derived from English "troll" from the story of a troll under a bridge. The Troll stopped people from reaching the end of the bridge. People started to refer to someone as a troll if they stop or slow people from getting to their primary objective. The word later evolved to meaning anyone who performs distractions or pranks on people.
Verb ) "I troll my brother when I tell him his shoes are untied!"

Noun) "Bob was being such a troll last night when he kept telling everyone that their shoes were untied!"

Trolling

Trolling is the art of sparking a flame war. It is derived from the fishing term as it does involve bait and stringing targets along. There are both subtle and overt ways of doing this. And mining the salt from the booty-blasted is a delicious endeavor with either set of methodologies. And it doesn't have to be disingenuous either as identifying uncomfortable truths to those who don't want to hear it qualifies. Now to really master trolling is not so much about being covert and hidden but to steer with as little effort as possible the flame war as to benefit from the outcome, and sometimes that is just delicious salt mining for the lulz.
