trolling

1. To make inflammatory comments on the internet for the purpose of starting controversy and gauging people's reactions.

2. What idiots say they were doing when they make an uneducated remark that is quickly discredited.

1. Troll: Halo invented the FPS video game genre!
Non-asshole: Shut up, you troll.

2. Will: Nixon was the best president of all time!
Michael: No he wasn't. Haven't you heard of Watergate or the Controlled Substances Act?
Will: ...oh, I'm just trolling.
