ME: "Hey Cross, are you ready to start?"

AFK-er

An AFK-er (pronounced "AY-eff-KAY-er") is a person currently experiencing AFK moments, i.e. the inability to have screen time to watch YouTube. There are certain risk factors of being an AFK-er, e.g. being born into an AFK tribe like the Amish or Baduy tribe. In addition to that, being of young age (read: still being a child) also increases your risk of being an AFK-er due to external factors like screen time limits imposed by parents.

Ever since his family moved to the countryside, Jake has turned into a total AFK-er—no YouTube and no gaming, just chores all day!
