pixel paranoia

Compulsory design behaviour, in which a designer is stuck in the act of adjusting of adjusting the size or position of an object on a pixel-sized level.

Oh jeez, look at Steve, he's been fiddling at the position of that button for 52 hours now. I think he is stuck in pixel paranoia.

Tab Paranoia

The feeling you get when you switch or close an internet browser tab on a computer for a perfectly normal reason the moment another person walks by in view of the monitor. Typically inherited from repeated cases of having an individual ask "what were you looking at?"

My mom walked into my room the instant I closed Internet Explorer. I was only closing my Steam account, but I bet she thought I was browsing porn. It's probably just my Tab Paranoia.

connection paranoia

the state of being convinced communication services are down/blocked- especially if caused by none of your contacts seemingly ever being online.

"I haven't seen any of my contacts all week, even my inbox doesn't have any spam! I don't think this new software's working properly."

"Don't worry, the software's fine. It's just connection paranoia."

Gamer Paranoia

Gamer Paranoia is a condition that occurs due to gaming behind one's parents back. Not limited to gaming, most activities on a computer done on a computer while watching for authority figures can cause it. Symptoms include constant glancing at the door, and heightened auditory perception. Treatment is usually done by removing the patient from the environment causing the condition.

From years of alt-tab gaming, I got gamer paranoia syndrome

PARANOiA Hades

The last remix of the PARANOiAs made by "aTYPE-300" (NAOKI). Possibly the hardest PARANOiA ever made. It runs at 300 BPM and it slows down to 100 BPM. The oni (challenge) stepchart consists of A LOT of turns and some double-stepping, all of witch it must be done at 300 BPM. The slow-down is also hard because the player must step on arrows at 32th beats, making it hard to read. It also contains a section of 12th notes in witch the player must also do turns and crossovers.

I don't know witch turns and crossovers are more annoying, PARANOIA SURVIVOR MAX's or PARANOiA Hades?

ghost paranoia

A condition in which a person is convinced that there is a ghost in his or her house. A person suffering from ghost paranoia will often tell you many different stories in which they have seen a ghost in their house and/or seen a ghost doing things with physical objects in their house.

Duder 1: "No for real. I came home one day and my beagle was on top of that fucking ledge. Way up there. I mean, how did he get up there? He can't jump that high."

Duder 2: "Yeah right dude."

Duder 1: "Oh and I saw her one night at the foot of my bed, she was all white and wouldn't take her eyes off me. I just hid under the covers til she went away. Oh and look at this window. Her hand print is still there!"

Duder 3: "Oh my God dude, there's no hand print. You've got ghost paranoia like a son of a bitch. How do you sleep alone at night?"

Newbie Paranoia

Within the context of an internet forum/group community, "Newbie Paranoia" is the wrongful suspicion that any new poster is actually an alias of a resident troll.

A new-comer to a message board, Al-J, is subject to Newbie Paranoia:
