Jax, be careful your reaction does not meet the definition.
Internet troll From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. On the Internet, the term troll is a slang term used to describe a number of things, traditionally: 1. A post (on a newsgroup, or other forum) thought to be intended to incite controversy or conflict or cause annoyance or offense. 2. A person who posts these. The term troll has negative connotations, and is often applied as an insult. An individual posting honestly-held but controversial opinions is sometimes mis-labeled as a troll. By contrast, a troll's primary incentive is generally considered to be the incitement of conflict. A troll's reactions to being identified as a troll can vary widely depending on the forum in which the exchange takes place. A person unjustly accused of being a troll may be hurt and express indignation. A troll will sometimes react with verbal abuse, raising the stakes with inflammatory remarks maligning the motivation of the accuser.

Does someone know the name and/or function of these required-to-be-cleaned-the-night-before-sailing plugs on the engine? It seems a couple of other people also have a blank spot as to the name/function of these plugs and also would like to know. Thanks in advance. |
