mockward

1) Making a situation more awkward by mocking how awkward it is. The situation need not be awkward in the first place.

Apparently coined by Washington Post columnist Monica Hesse.

2) Mocking someone in an awkward — and thereby probably unsuccessful — manner.

Apparently coined by then-Columbia Journalism Review assistant editor Megan Garber.
Someone asked to define the word "awkward" will often resort to describing the task as "awkward," which is just mockward. When someone does the same with "mockward," it's meta-mockward.

groupie tendencies

The likelihood of an individual to adore/follow otherwise-peers.

Groupie tendencies need not involve any sexual desire. In fact, those with extreme groupie tendencies ask nothing of their (usually reluctant) paradours save acceptance of an unequal relationship. Such cases — while sometimes able to acknowledge the pathetic aspects of their attitude — feel a righteous indignation about their actions.
