An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum or chat room, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response or to generally disrupt normal on-topic discussion. Although the motivations of Internet Trolls are varied, some Trolls seek notoriety by going on radio shows, spew garbage and bizarre stories and then sit back and listen when the host confronts their nonsense with truth and reason. Once the troll is finished being confronted, he usually hangs up and then limps over to his Facebook profile and writes to his 4 or 5 other troll friends that he conquered another public figure.
