Attention Span Ponzi Scheme

An Attention Span Ponzi Scheme is a system of recruitment of people to pay attention to a topic. People recruited to the topic are then encouraged to drag in the attention spans of others.

The entire system collapses when everyone realizes that the topic is bankrupt of value to be discussed in the first place.
Examples of Attention Span Ponzi Schemes include chain letters, time-wasting Facebook applications, and any social reference group that is based on recruiting others to participate or play for the subject to have sustained interest.

Erection Span

When the attention span of a male lasts as long as his erection does, but usually related to the attention being focused on something nasty which normally wouldn't attract a male's attention under flaccid circumstances such as very nasty porn or fugly chicks or hookers.
One Dude to Another: I cannot believed I jacked off to that skank porn last nite. I also joined the skank porn site and spent like $39.95!

Another: Until you lose your erection span, stuff like that happens. Hopefully you've contained the damage to dick chafe and a slight hit to your credit card. One nite when I was on a business trip, my dick was hard and I ordered 2 hookers to a hotel room and it cost me $500. I should have just jerked off.
