the internets

An intentional mangling of (the) internet used for ironic effect as a humorous reference to the large segment of the population that remains clueless about technology. Now a popular malapropism, "the internets" meme exploded after the second televised Bush-Kerry debate held prior to the 2004 Presidential election. Blogs and Television, especially The Daily Show, bear much of the responsibility for the initial propagation of "the internets" as it is currently used.
When asked about the seeming inevitibility of a draft, the President replied, "I hear there's rumors on the Internets (sic) that we're going to have a draft..."

Mad On The Internet

When someone gets upset on the internet, they are "mad on the internet." This is similar to being mad in real life, but never justifiable, and will always make one look particularly bad or stupid.
People are always getting mad on the internet at me just because I'm never wrong and know how to keep my cool.
