this troll is astronomically bad. They enter in forums with either the intention of being
offensive and fall short, or they lack responses alltogether. Everyone knows even the
simplest trolls get at least 3 or 4 replies. Not the failtroll. The failtroll gets none
except his/her sockpuppets. Sometimes a failtroll is too ambitious and delusional to
realize no one is biting their crap and proceed to flood and/or spam a message board or
chatroom in order to get some feedback.

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
