What would you call a thread that may not be intentionally designed to be inflammatory or provoke an emotional response but are inevitably doing exactly that? I guess you could call the authors "unwitting trolls" but we need a more awesome word for it. Suggestions  ?

Dingusaurus Rex
Dingaloid
and even Dingus Khan (one of my personal faves)
The possibilities are truly endless
