Troll...Trolling...Trolled

 
Whenever I hear the word "troll" I instantly think of Twitter. I think of people who have nothing better to do with their time but annoy and harass people from behind a screen.
Bottom line: trolls are bullies.
It's quite a simple concept. Trolls are punks who will talk...type and hide behind a username all day long but would never have the guts to do it to your face. I've never had to deal with a troll...directly. Meaning I am guilty of biting the bait a troll has laid out there. Especially on Twitter and especially when it's concerning something or someone I really care about. The “troll” didn’t even need to be directed towards me; I guess you could say I should’ve just minded my own business, but oh well.
Other than that, I’ve never really been “trolled”. I think most people who are trolled are people like celebrities and people who are in the public eye a lot. They’re considered to be desirable targets for trolls because trolls want that same amount of attention.
More popular the victim, more popular the response.
