thumbnail cheat

n- a famous trick used on video sharing sites such as You tube, where users stick a random softcore porn picture (i.e. female assets and chicks seemingly engaged in sensual acts) in the middle of their videos so as to make that the default icon of the video, thus gaining views from easily excitable male users.

Such testosterone-pumped viewers click on the thumbnails, only to be disappointed by a completely random (and often ad-infested) video.

Not surprisingly, such videos often make it to the "Tio Viewed" list, thus exponentially increasing its number of victims.

To the horror of many, this can also be combined with being rick rolled.

Of course, females can be the victims of the thumbnail cheat as well (although more often out of curiosity than horniness.)

Note: I'm not trying to be sexist about guys in general. Still, how do you account for those millions of views on such videos or the pissed off comments left by male users? ;o
Male User: HELL YEA! Look at 'em jugs *clicks*

*Rick Astley's funkalicious "Never Gonna Give You Up" comes onto the screen*

Male User: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

cheating

Being cheated on is one of the worst feeling you can feel. because you loose the trust for the person who cheated on you.you cant even forgive them because your hurt so bad. you never want to get cheated on and the worst part is you dont exspect it,you either get cheated on emotionaly or physicaly by sexual contact. you think you can trust the person with everthing and once you get cheated on everything changes, you cant seem to feel anything, you feel like giving up on life because you loved that person enough were you could go out with the person. you dont know who to trust becuase you dont want it to happen again. you feel like your world crashs to a end you will never act the same. you start slowly finding yourself constanyl thinking about saying what went wrong. you cant seem to stop crying becuase you have no heart anymore. and if you had to chance to change the pass you would and forget this ever happened.
going out with some and your lover does things with other people behind your back which makes it cheating.
