Internetiquette

Unwritten rules of social networking that should be followed. Failure to do so can lead to the loss of friends and/or seeming like a HUGE creep

"Why does Larry always 'Like' her statuses?"
"No clue, he doesn't have any internetiquette."

Internet Cheerleading

Based on chat rooms or forums, the individual who continually posts one line posts containing few words to people or persons who they a: do not know well, b: have never met, c: have nothing in common with or d: no intention of learning more about that person.

In the spirit of bloat posting (adding total amount of posts to a forum or website) to make the numbers more attractive to potential sponsors or for advertisers.

Or in the guise of pretending to look interested in whatever the topic, subject or debate may be.

"Hey everyone its Bill birthday, happy birthday Bill!!"

"" Omg Bill, have a super day!"" (internet cheerleading)

"Hi, Im new to the site, just saying hi and hope to meet people"

"" Welcome to the site, I hope you meet people too!"" (Internet Cheerleading)

"Does anyone know how to fix a widget?"

""No I dont but hopefully you will someone who does."" (Internet Cheerleading)

internet hermit

Someone whose main contact with human society is through the internet.

Every time I look out my window I see that guy in the next building in front of his computer. He' there at all hours. Doesn't he have a job to go to? I think he's just an internet hermit.

Internet Quicksand

These are to be avoided at all costs. They usually take the appearance of an appealing website, such as "Hack any Facebook account!" or "Watch Netflix for free!" Click on it, and you won't be hacking or watching anything for a while. First, it'll ask you to fill out some little captcha and give an email address. Easy to fake your way through it. Then comes stage 2:

"Just fill out this quick survey..."

Don't. If you start this survey, the quicksand pulls you down into survey after ad after survey, until you and your computer are drowning in pop up windows and fake personal information you try to use, as the Internet Quicksand links you to more quicksand, makes more windows you can't close, and slowly steals your real personal information.

And for all we know, it probably hacks your Facebook and watches your Netflix. Stepping into an Internet Quicksand will destroy at least an hour of your life you will wish to forget. And worst of all, it now has your computer information and email. Say hello to a sudden influx of advertising and new email spam that none of your friends will understand or believe.

Person 1: Whoa look I can hack anyone's Facebook...

2 hours later:

Person 1: Aw, shucks. It was an Internet quicksand. But look! 50 places just emailed me about free Netflix!

5 hours later:

Person 1: These bastards think they're gonna mess with me? I'll show them. I'll hack their Facebook!

internet courage

The type of bravado a person exhibits on the internet incognito behind a screen only to turn coward when confronted physically.

Rob was all internet courage when slut shaming Koko's gala attire last night but stuttered when she accosted him in class.
