The feeling which occurs after one has stayed up past his sleep cycle such that the body has abandoned its "go to sleep" feeling and has shifted into a light buzz.
It is comparable to the lingering buzz that remains in the morning after a night of drinking, because the body is rather awake yet clearly not fully sober.

KATE: John, go to bed. Aren't you sleepy? You were dozing off at your desk a few hours ago.
JOHN: Yeah, but the sleepy part of my cycle is over. It's back into awake mode, so I'm lanked now.

Get the lanked mug.Hair-trigger accusations of pedophilia. Usually, this accompanies a "you're with us or you're with the pedophiles" false dichotomy style of thought, not unlike "you're with us or you're with the terrorists."

Person: Can we please have a rational discussion about the consequences of running a sex offender list?
Pedohysterics: Why? That sounds like something a pedophile would say. Only pedophiles and pedo apologists would want a list like that gone.

Amy: Did you see the insensitive rant that Joe posted on his blog?
Bob: Yeah. I've already sent it to HuffPo and Gawker. Hopefully we can post up where he works for everyone to see.
Amy: Woah, you're running a bluelisting campaign? I was just asking if you'd seen it. Jesus christ, Bob.

Get the bluelisting mug.Mass reporting of any violation of a rule while disrespecting the intent of the rule, just for the sake of getting something removed.
1. Someone posts a video of a political speech. There is no swearing; it could be on CNN.
2. The opponents of the person giving the speech mass report that video for containing "disturbing content," even though "disturbing content" is supposed to be something like, say, gore.
3. In reaction to the mass reports, moderators flag the video as 18+ or remove it entirely, just because of the rulebombing effect.

Get the rulebombing mug.A post intended for a large audience yet posted on a single person's wall to appear more genuine. Since proxy wallposts are visible through homepage feeds, one can advertise a trait of oneself that would be construed as bragging if in the form of a status.
Suppose you want to advertise to your friends that you are caring and social. This is impossible to brag about, so instead just find your friend who shares the most mutual friends and write this gem of a proxy wallpost:
"We had such a great time last week! I miss you so much <3"
Soon, everyone you know will see it in their feed. And, unlike a status, no one will call you on it for fear of you playing the None Of Your Business card.

Get the proxy wallpost mug.The temporary change in personality that occurs after being deeply involved with a movie, book, game, or some other work of fiction.
Can also be expanded to nonfiction ("documentary lag" or some other variant), but is less common because those works are typically experienced through the frame of the reader/player/watcher's default personality.

CHRIS: Don't think. Don't hesitate. Just say it.
ASHLEY: Why are you talking like that?
CHRIS: What?
ASHLEY: You sound like a movie trailer. Is this because you just finished watching Fight Club?
CHRIS: Uhh... yeah I guess I'm a little fiction lagged.

Get the fiction lag mug.Misuse of a safety mechanism, like a fire alarm, danger hotlines or report buttons on a website, to censor speech without regard to the intent of the safety mechanism.
A type of rulebombing.

Fire alarming is a problem, because it:
(a) disrespects actual instances of dangerous events the mechanism is designed to prevent, and
(b) causes people who have to monitor uses of that safety mechanism to show skepticism to future uses of that safety mechanism, since the number of serious instances are diluted.
