Reel hole

Similar to a rabbit hole and a k-hole, simultaneously, in a metaphorical sense, is a long and winding exploratory path with many connections and offshoots. The term reel hole is often used to describe a feeling of getting a high enough dose of IG content to experience a state of dissociation and lack of environmental awareness.

Damn yo, I was in an hour long reel hole at 3am.

Highlight reels

Somebody that wants to be known and respected as the prosperous giant slayer and will claim to be the underdog in any situation until he/she defeats the giant (and therefore wants to benefit from a perceived disadvantage, but doesn't want to be at an actual disadvantage, and doesn't want to actually be or look weak).

The one that deemed himself/herself David showed everybody highlight reels of himself/herself beheading the giant but hid the reels of himself/herself being defeated after bullying someone else.

Instagram reels syndrome

A disease in which the built up brain rot from over ingestion of short form content causes an irrational and sometimes delusional response to digital stimuli.

My friend has Instagram reels syndrome. She has been laughing hysterically at the word "fart" being played over "fly me to the moon" for 5 minutes.
