The beauty of #TrollScienceFacts is that it need not be related to what you're being trolled about. And, it spreads science everywhere!

Remember, anyone can play along with #TrollScienceFacts! Think of it as a bat signal calling for science trivia. Pitching in is encouraged.

Personally, I find #TrollScienceFacts to be most effective if the facts are random. I.e., tweet about wasp parasites to a climate skeptic.

It's great that people are already tweeting science facts to #TrollScienceFacts, but don't forget to tweet them at a troll. :P
