When you feel the need to forward a just received joke, picture or video to your friends (not to the sender, of course). To be unable to keep the received medium just for you.
Common similar activities called Obsessive Compulsive Disorders or OCDs include hand washing, counting of things, and checking to see if a door is locked.
This Christmas joke card is so great. It fits perfectly to John: Sent!

Oh dear, you suffer from CID, that social media disorder. The full technical term is Obsessive-Compulsive Instagram Disorder (OCID). Or just CID.
Oh, you are a wise guy.

Willy-nilly believer

A careless believer. Someone who hears a statement or story and takes it for granted without considering the implications of that story. In religion, this is the belief in miracles as the multiplication of bread or the belief in an afterlife of a human after having seen the macabre decay of body (and brain). The opposite is an illuminated person who considers the plausibility and the side effects of a story.
There is no sense to discuss this with her. She just believes that she hears the spirits of the deceased talking, just willy-nilly. She is a willy-nilly believer in many things. Maybe she should take a course in physics. Or in psychology.

Israel paradox

It is the paradox that Israel was meant to be a safe haven for the Jews of the world. Now, conversely, Israel's actions are creating insecurity for Jews in many countries.
The Israeli army's actions provoked counter-demonstrations in many countries, from New York to Berlin and Istanbul. The Israel Paradox is at work again.

microalcoholic

when you like drinking alcohol per se but regard a teaspoon of whisky as the right dose to draw the pleasure of drinking. The tablespoon is then at the boundary to alcoholism.
My wife and me, we are microalcoholics. It is our philosophy to enjoy whisky etc. but because alcohol with wine at lunch and dinner is accumulating through the day, we restrict to the enjoyable minimum. This gives the pleasure of nice drinks plus the good feeling of self-mastery.

Menuphobia

Reluctance to make a choice between different alternatives.

Making decisions is always a task. But it is an unpleasant task for many people. The term "menuphobia" describes this aversion to having to choose between several alternatives.
I hate long lists of choices in restaurants. My wife always makes the better choice and I have to watch her. I already have real menu phobia.

There is so much great food to choose from on the cruise that I can't make up my mind. I suffer from menuphobia.
