Woel

{woah-el} (noun) A portmanteau of 'word' and 'duel'.

A battle of words between two participants who are passionate about a certain topic and on completely different sides of the argument. In order for it to rise above that of a 'debate' into the class of a woel, the initial quarrel must begin online and then continue into reality. Often tends to be negative to those around who have to listen to two people who simply wish to convince one another of their own position.
Person 1: "Sarah and Jon are having a woel about abortion that I saw begin on Sarah's facebook status and is now happening at this party."
Person 2: "Yeah, it is really bringing everyone down."

Two celebrities are trapped in a woel after insulting each other on twitter and then attacking each other verbally.
