Mapping out Generation Y's placement would put its members' formative and adolescent years through the late eighties until the millennial bug brouhaha of 2000. Generation Y represents the juniors of the MTV Generation (See entry), who by and large grew up influenced by the youth culture movement of the 80's and early 90's, further encouraged through a savvier approach by broadcast media (through film, TV, music, and literature) to promote talents, showbiz, and commercial ideas. The age of household Internet access in the 90's allowed Generation Y to initiate and sustain the convergence of broadcast media content with accessible information.
As Generation Y kids were introduced to the World Wide Web through basic dial-up Internet, so did the shaping of their lifestyles and approach to socialization. These were significantly influenced by online connectivity's relatively primitive Etiquette in technology and the inevitable results of self-discovery by the users who were interacting online. These formative years of Internet technology was coincidentally the formative years of Generation Y members. Online etiquette and protocols of social and legal interaction were yet to be fully established and formalized and it was during this period that much of the landscape of the Internet was influenced and shaped by how Generation Y used the Internet as a platform for communication.

Get the Generation Y mug.An oxymoron and a paradox in itself in the context of social media such as Facebook, especially when a user finds something amusing or interesting enough to share or post on his wall (which means the user LIKES what he put on his wall/feed), and everybody is apparently ignoring what he's been posting for the longest time, as if it never existed.
Joe (thinking to himself): Damn, is anybody even seeing what I'm posting and sharing on my wall? I've been sharing some pretty cool stuff and I've been liking (well not like an easy like whore that Urbandictionary is defining) what my friends have been sharing on their walls. Some friends they are. Where the hell is the reciprocity?! Buncha ingrates! How come it's as if they're ignoring me on purpose?! Do I even exist? Maybe they think I'm dead. Am I dead? Is this like the 6th Sense? Oh well, better stop doing this social media crap then, pretty pointless talking to myself online. Damn, now I'm doing it in real life.

Get the easy like mug.A troll who posts messages that are designed to inflame and anger a community, thereby serving as an effigy or representation that people can curse at, argue against or ridicule, when in fact that trolling poster doesn't really exist in real life.
Man, these white guys are really bashing this effitroll who claims he's a black dude who claims all white people are racists who deserve to rot in hell.

Get the effitroll mug.The most popular way of verifying unconfirmed facts, rumors, and unproven assertions by anyone. If it's in Google, then it might have merit. Although, it should be noted that reading the actual articles is completely different from just reading the search results and webpage titles, so the facts might still remain unconfirmed.
I just Google-and-confirmed it, the search results say that Justin Bieber is, as a matter of fact, gay.
Groupie Fan Girl: No way! You just checked the search results and didn't read the articles, it's not true!
