A Conversation for Trolls

I might be wrong, but the quotationmarks in the sentence on 'trollunge' seems missplaced. "A misbehaving child can be called a trollunge or 'literally troll' baby or child"
Are they needed at all?
And ending the section with practical advice with "if you are near a troll", is unnecessary, it's implicit.

Hi Naita,
I've moved the quote marks and reworded that other sentence. I know it's supposed to be implicit, but I think it was changed because it wasn't implicit enough - better to patronise one reader than leave another bewaffled
Cracking entry this one,
Jims

I'm afraid of patronising people. I tend to assume people are stupid, embarassing myself when I realise they were only pretending. Or I think they _must_ be joking, and then they aren't. Life's hard.
Glad you like the entry though.
