Trolling is a lost art. It used to be quite funny. The original sense of the word meant baiting USENET newcomers along with incorrect nonsense. Sort of like how Australians try to trick tourists with lore about "drop bears" or a goofy uncle would go on about snipe hunting or cow tipping. Now it simply means name calling and general offensive behavior, which isn't nearly as clever or fun.
