Katzer is the dire necessity of someone to highlight an article they post for the informational benefit of his or her peers. This necessity is born from the posting party’s illogical and pompous belief that no one is as smart as he or she is and the article is useless in the hands of mentally inept people who will miss the thesis summation without direction of someone with superior brainpower.
“I don’t think your girlfriend will be able to follow that rice crispy treat recipe dude, you better enact a Katzer.”

“Thankfully the article I had read was Katzered, or I would have completely missed the intricacies of male horse and female donkey cross breeding and how it relates to people of German decent.”
