Difficult to cure and highly infectious, this is glitter that travels from person to person after even minimal contact. Usually originates from some kind of queer craft activity involving glitter or glittered clothing and accessories. A great number of queer people, particularly gay men, catch and spread glerpes.

Usually transmitted by hugging, cuddling, or just being really gay. A portmanteau of glitter and herpes.
