First things first. Obviously you think you're a troll, but why? What IS a troll?
There are different kinds of internet trolls:
1. A person who brings life to a tired, dull internet message board by purposeful attempts to start flame wars or Internet drama by posting comments that are patently Fucktarded, yet still inflammatory enough to enrage the stupid, irrational and humorless. The moment someone points out that the troll in question was just gunning for a reaction usually results in a fucking fire drill.
2. A person that throws around the troll insult to: anyone who defeats them in an argument, anyone who points out facts the real troll doesn't want people to know, or someone the real troll picks at random to stick falsely with a troll label for sheer lulz. This second type of troll is 98.9999999% of all trolls now and is often called an Anti-troll.
3. A person affiliated with the group Bantown, commonly known for their lulz. missmanners is a goddess!missmanners is a goddess!missmanners is a goddess!missmanners is a goddess! IS DEAD, JEWS KILLED missmanners is a goddess!missmanners is a goddess!missmanners is a goddess!missmanners is a goddess!. Shut the fuck up.
4. A Fat middle aged man or Russian Woman who lives under a bridge.
5. A Concerned Mother who does not appreciate how other trolls are treating their little kids who don't belong on the interwebz in the first place.
6. Anyone who disagrees with a Wikipedia administrator.
The term 'troll' derives from "trolling", a style of fishing which involves trailing bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. As a verb, "to troll" is probably a corruption of "trawl." (*) Troll is fine as a verb since trawling for comments and flames is innate troll behavior. A "Troll" is a mythical monster that lives under a bridge and surprises people who try and cross the bridge with some bizarre puzzle or challenge that they must complete before crossing. It has been suggested that people who lurk in groups and suddenly enter discussions with unwanted and provocative contributions inspire the same type of fear in law-abiding netizens. More rational people know that Trolls are, in fact, monsters who live under a bridge, probably in Utah, who flocked to the information superhighway after real superhighways were declared obsolete by Al Gore. Bad things happen when trolls meet IRL.
Novice trolls often experience troll's remorse. Such feelings tend to pass once they realize that people who take the Internets seriously enough to get upset by trolling really ought to get over themselves. Once they reach this point, they are said to suffer from Internet troll personality disorder. After long enough, they may even develop Chronic Troll Syndrome.
(*)Note: not to be confused with the gay slang verb "to troll" which means to trawl for sex.
