Ahem, yes. Sorry! The quote button is in a unintuitive position.

I'd say the Report button is in an unintuitive position. I've used it a few times to reply because I wasn't paying attention.

My post was kind of mangled English. I had wanted to ask if it's still considered trolling if a poster had no intent to troll. For e.g. an innocently posed question that will obviously get folks all riled up. Or someone with a personality type that isn't aware she's being confrontational or belligerent. Just curious.

The designation of "troll" does seem to be evolving to describe anyone with an unpopular question.
Troll Slaying (by XKCD) - Ryuujin27 - 2009-06-02
However, it does usually refer to someone who started a particular topic to rile up the masses. Usually the troll will only post the initial topic and then leave it to... hmm, I guess the best word is "fester," but sometimes they will return to feed the flames.

xkcd picks up a lot from popular culture (and subculture and counterculture). For example, frequent references to Firefly and Serenity are made, with one entire week's series based on it: (http://xkcd.com/577/) through (http://xkcd.com/581/).
A reference to Star Wars: http://xkcd.com/469/
Snakes on a Plane: http://xkcd.com/107/

Troll Slaying (by XKCD) - harusame - 2009-06-02
Well, the books were INSANELY popular, and then the movie came out, and now the stars of the movie are all over the tabloids because they're *actually* dating, and they're even having a cruise with the actors and some fans...you get the idea. It's sort of like Harry Potter 2.0.

(I haven't seen the movie or anything, just saying.)I am from Germany and I heard about the Twilight movie some time ago so I was not totally clueless. But while scanning the comic I didn't recognized the women as the author..

Twilight is famous for being one of the worst books ever written. It has also sold several billion copies, perhaps even several trillion.
