Default The Science Behind Internet Trolls

"Your tears sustain me."
-Hasbinbad Bearjew the Dragonslayer

There is now a factual scientific basis for the evolution of internet trolls (Homo sapiens incendiarius) from normal humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) because of fairly new (2006) research about a moth that pokes the eyes of birds in order to make them cry, and then feed off their tears. From the article:

"..the Madagascan moth has a proboscis with hooks and barbs 'shaped like an ancient harpoon,' Hilgartner says. This can be inserted under the bird's eyelids, where the barbs anchor it, apparently without disturbing the bird. The team does not yet know whether the insect spits out an anaesthetic to dull the irritation."

Trolls most definitely do not use anesthetic. Hell I'm pretty sure they don't use lube.
