論壇里有這么一種人，永遠是客客氣氣的說話，但卻來者不善，就喜歡挑起論壇的爭吵然后看熱鬧，這種陰險小人的外號就叫sea-lion（海獅）。

Sea-lion is a person who intrudes upon an online conversation in an attempt to engage opponents in debate, particularly by using a tone of feigned civility.
“海獅”是那種在網(wǎng)絡(luò)聊天中突然闖入，用一種故作禮貌的語調(diào)來介入談話，目的是讓意見相左的人吵起來。

Sea-lions can be so passively annoying that they goad their targets into exploding in anger at them, thereby seemingly become the victims and leave their targets marginalized.
“海獅”這種行為讓人有一種無名火，有時候會導(dǎo)致目標(biāo)對象把怒火發(fā)泄到他們身上，表面上“海獅”似乎是受害者，但他們的目標(biāo)對象卻因此而被邊緣化。
