Method Trolling

A technique of trolling in which a troll aspires to complete emotional identification with a part, based on the system evolved by Stanislavsky and brought into prominence in the US in the early 2000's. Method trolling was developed in online environments such as YouTube, 4chan, reddit and earlier websites such as Newgrounds and Funnyjunk. Though the terminology itself was first coined in a set of steam messages on September 18, 2020 by online user Hobo (vista california).

house troll

House troll- Roommate who loves to scavenge your food, drink your booze; make a mess and not clean up; then disappear into the room cave when there's work or help needed. They enjoy appearing and taking full advantage of parties and visits by the ladies... then once again... disappear after they scavenge the wine/ food/women that is not theirs; then scuttle back into the cave.

Infinite Troll

A situation in which two trolls accidentally troll each other resulting in an everlasting face off where there is no clear troll and trollee. Even when it is conceded that an 'Infinite Troll' has occurred, often the trolls will still troll each other arguing over who realised the other was a troll first. It can become quite dangerous at times and has even been outlawed in some countries. All of which don't exist.

Can often be referred to as a 'Troll paradox'.

Troll-anche

A natural occurrence of idiocracy.

A metaphorical mass of "pwnage" falling rapidly down any form of group communication (e.g. forum, blog, wall post, conversation, etc.) directed at a single person or group resulting in them being buried beneath the trolling of their pride, credibility, intellect or any other interpretation of their social worth based on reputation, education or lack thereof.
Person 1: Power-lifting and Strongman events are real workouts, CrossFit is just an easy way of getting injured.

Person 2: Oh you think so, why don't you come try a workout at the CrossFit gym with "us" today?

Person 1: You don't even know how hard I kill it in the gym everyday.

Person 2: First off why are you avoiding my workout invitation?

Person 3: You can't go talking down about something you have no idea about, when you haven't even tried it; plus I'm sure that if I went to the gym with you I could do everything you do in relation to our weight and weight being lifted.

Person 4: Did this guy just go from speaking in generalities, quantitative data, to rebutting with his qualitative experiences because he has no empirical data to back his shit it up?

Person 5: I think person 1 just got "Troll-anched"
