You idiots all got this fucking wrong. The correct spelling of “internet troll” is actually TRAWLER. The term “troll” comes from TRAWLING FOR ARGUMENTS - like a fishing trawler. Fishing trawlers slowly drag bait or nets behind them and wait for fish to bite. Therefore; if someone leaves a comment on the internet as bait for an argument, they are “trawling” for an argument. Someone who practices trawling for arguments would therefore be coined a “TRAWLER”.
You people are idiots. The term is actually “trawler.”

Get the Perpetual trolling mode mug.1. Looking through your neighbors trash to see if there's anything that peaks your interest or something that is in good shape that you can use or should be donated to a charity instead of thrown in the dump.
2. Going to a bar or nightclub with the intent to meet some trashy looking character because that's the type you like or in the mood to hang out with.

2. I'm going trash trolling at the clubs tonight to find a trashy looking person to hang out with or maybe hook up.

Get the Troll mug.Yeah, more like PLANT... Look, he's how it works. They use the plants to create FAKE criticism of the people I talk about (criticisms intended to mirror MY criticism) to undercut MY criticism with LESS EFFECTIVE, LESS TRUE (but analogous) criticism.
Hym "Conservative troll trolls imposter troll (who neworks with charlatans who are trying to destroy me) with fake troll about wife and rather say the thing that is LIKELY TRUE says thing that everyone already knows and doesn't care about. More interstate is the fact that his wife left him THE DAY I MENTIONED HIM and he HAS AN ABSOLUTE MELTDOWN whenever he see someone doing THE THING THAT HE IS DOING... Which is: impersonating me to shill for Jewish media personalities. Destiny is literally Christianity! He's meat shield for the Jews!"

Get the Conservative Troll mug.Pauper Trolls
noun – satirical, cultural-political slang
Definition:
A group or subculture of perpetually disgruntled, economically stagnant individuals—often older, embittered, and clinging to nostalgic political slogans (e.g., "Make America Great Again")—who congregate (virtually or metaphorically) under bridges of misinformation, grievance, and lost relevance. Typically resistant to progress, allergic to nuance, and suspicious of facts, they bemoan modern life while ironically using its tech to spread their discontent.
Origin:
Coined humorously by a grandchild observing certain TV personas, the term gained traction as a biting generational critique—“out of the mouths of babes!”—for those stuck in cultural or economic stasis while blaming everyone but themselves.
Example:
"When Grandpa starts ranting about the 'deep state' from his Facebook bunker again, my little cousin whispers, 'Pauper Troll alert!'"
Related terms:
Grievance goblins, MAGA mopers, Boomers under bridges, Keyboard cavemen, Foxhole dwellers
