status syndrome

when people try too hard and go out of their way to post something as their status on facebook or tweet.

They try to find humor in everyday things where there is none fishing for "likes", comments and retweets.

These people try to hard and its a shame. They are also not aware that they are doing it. If what they thought was "funny" was said by a standup comic, you would hear crickets chirping but people trying to be nice will give you a "thumbs up" or a "lol" on fb, only worsening the problem.
Just take a look at the status updates and prolly 4 out of 5 are lame and you prolly are guilty of doin it too.

Jane: LOL just got a new shirt. The salesperson was retarded I think lol

Friends: (cricket chirping, everyone "looking" at each other, finally someone decides to type lol to move on with it.)

Status Flirt

To Status Flirt, is to update your status with hints or ambiguous statements which you hope your crush will respond to.

This is an easy way to ease into a conversation or romantic dialogue as it can start out jokingly or if all backfires one can say it was "For someone else" or "just some lyrics".

It is typically best to use words from a song they like or know, or mention something which they hold close to them. A great tip is to use something similar to their status.

Often used on; Facebook, MSN, Skype, Yahoo, Etc..
Girl's Status Update: I'm about to go to sleep, Wish I had someone to hold me.

Status Shots

When a guy buys a round of drinks for people he doesn't know to show the woman at the bar he's interested in that he has a lot of money. One must not actually have a lot of money to buy status shots, but one must have enough to pay for the round and be prepared to repeat the process to let people continue thinking he is wealthy.
Tom: Who is this douche approaching our table?
Dan: Doesn't look familiar. Probably trying to steal one of Karen's friends.
Douche: I'm rich and careless with my money! Who needs a drink?! I'm getting everyone a round!
Tom: I don't care who he is. I'll reap the benefits of his Status Shots before I tell him to go away.
