Everyone else darkens out in the sun, while said insider will stay pale because their only form of light is from a screen.

Monitor Shopping

Monitor shopping is another form of window shopping. However, instead of stores its all through the internet. You’re online only browsing, not looking for anything in particular because you can’t afford it but you enjoy looking anyway. Maybe you’ll save something in your favorites for when you do have money.

monitor lizard

Rare skin condition that affects one in seven geeks born before 1982* caused by unreliable CRT monitors exploding inexplicably in one's face. The resulting scabs often form in a regular pattern resembling scales, hence the moniker, Lizard.
Monitor Lizards were generally regarded with fear and awe by the geek and hacking communities until the mid-nineties when it became fashionable to sport a 'monitor print' by deliberately exploding a monitor on a person's head.
After the loss of its influence as a status symbol, the Monitor Lizard gradually faded from the annals of history and time past.

(*Information accurate as of June 1990. Although some dismiss the Monitor Lizard phenomenon as an urban legend, 72% of all seven year olds surveyed attested to the story's validity.)
