A troll is someone who ask or answers questions only to cause inflammation or anger. Like a virus, and like a virus they won't go away and keep coming back.

Or they are the ugly little dolls with wild hair, crazy eyes and a jewel in their belly. However you want to look at it..

It's what the mamas call a poster or responder who they think is not 'legitimate'. Someone who is "trolling" the internet looking for ways to entertain themselves by asking questions that tend to be on the ridiculous side and then laughing at the responders who take them seriously.

Or, the better image to conjur.... the little so-ugly-they're-cute fuzzy haired kids dolls that you sit around your bingo cards to give you luck as you play!!!!!!!!!!!!!
