Drunk Looping

Similar to drunk dialing or drunk texting. However, drunk looping is a strictly corporate phenomenon which requires no alcohol --- only access to a computer and the sadistic, uncontrollable impulse to add people to email threads while providing as little context as possible.

Signs of drunk looping include overusing terms like "looping in," "FYI," and "visibility," enjoying PowerPoint presentations longer than 12 slides, and having a cold, dark soul.

e.g.

"Looping in Trevor!"

"Adding Mary for visibility!"

"John, FYI ... the 73 emails that comprise this thread contain one or two sentences that you should be aware of."

"I was at inbox zero, but then Theo was drunk looping all morning and now I have to work through lunch."

ironic loop

A phenomenon in current popular culture of something being cool because it's not cool... because it is... ... because it's not, and so on. This went dormant briefly after September 11th, but soon returned.

"Why is Johnny wearing corduroy cut-offs and white socks? Is that cool?" "Yes, because of the ironic loop." "What if I wore that?" "Then it would totally NOT be cool."
