olihilistic: I believe the term "troll" has been hijacked by "bully". Get the original definition of troll and trolling and you will have a glimpse into the world in the deepest recesses of my being.

However, I do understand contemporary observers have replaced trolling with bullying. It's sad and stiffles one of the creative aspects of internet... Still rising. 1 Like 1 Share |
