Nine hysterical women

Share definition
An overwhelming and practical response from the fans to events in a TV series, book, film, etc.

The first nine hysterical women were Torchwood fans, who sent coffee and letters to the BBC protesting against the death of Ianto Jones. Over 900 people registered on one LiveJournal community alone.
Russell T Davies: "The 'controversy' over Ianto's death is just nine hysterical women."

Or:
If (character) dies this series, they'll have nine hysterical women on their hands.

When fake or sensational videos are uploaded to YouTube and propelled by alarmist users into the mind of the general population, spawning urban myths, group-think, or panic.
"Dude did you hear that there is a hidden camera in your cable box watching you jerkoff?"

No way that's totally "YouTube Mass Hysteria "

Hispanicus Hystericus

Share definition
A disproportional emotional over-reaction to a crisis (or event) caused by an overstimulation of the limbic system that renders efficient function of the pre-frontal cortex extremely difficult.
Bystander #1: "Excuse me... why are they yelling and screaming like that? Are they OK?"

Bystander #2: "They have Hispanicus Hystericus. They'll be OK as soon as they calm down."

Historical Investigation

Share definition
The worse possible project an IB student can be assigned. This enormously long and difficult project must be completed as part of the IB Topics of the 20th Century history course, or else you fail. It involves answering a specific research question of interest (well, really, who gives a fuck?) and poring through books and journal articles on the subject, therefore wasting an enormous part of the time you DON'T have as an IB student.
I hate the historical investigation. It shouldn't have the FIVE parts it contains, but rather be a single paper in which we are allowed to write more than 2000 words--if we need to

snow hysteria

Share definition
When the populace's fear of a snowstorm creates traffic jams and general panic way before any flakes even fall. Usually turns out to be a totally disproportionate response to a minor snowstorm.
Everyone is fleeing the office thanks to snow hysteria...but it isn't supposed to start snowing until 9 PM.
