Trolling

SALT LAKE CITY — First off, I am not talking about those silly wild haired dolls with jewels in their belly buttons.

A troll’s sole purpose in life is to comment about an article, statement, question in a forum or other Internet venue so that comment will upset the target person or persons to the point where they are yelling at their computer and punching the monitor.
