NP re. fake pics and other hoaxes

[Dave Monroe]

"Flamebait or trollbait is a message posted to an
Internet discussion group, such as a newsgroup or a
mailing list, with the intent of provoking an angry
response (a 'flame'). Various motives or explanations
can be sought for this puzzling behavior; the desire
for attention and the desire for entertainment at
others' expense are two leading motives."
