Internet Supervillain

An Internet Supervillain is normally described as someone who has high social power, primarily in their league, be it Youtube, Twitter, Reddit, or any other site. They can often be suckers for creating utter chaos and turn comment sections into complete warzones with any accomplices, allies, or followers. Overall they tend to be very unique depending on the individual. Examples of people who qualify as Internet Supervillains would include leafyishere, MeiAIDS, and likely Quackity.

" Wait, some maniac is beginning to grow big on Reddit and use their followers to harass other people? Sound the Internet Supervillain alarm! "

Internet Inertia

Usually accompanied by mild insomnia, it is the feeling one has as they try to cease browsing the internet but find they are unable to stop. The result is that one slowly drifts on into the unending space of the web.

Thought #1: I should really go to bed...
Thought #2: No... Just one more link.
(...)
Thought #73: Oh god: I've been drifting for 5 hours. A bad case of Internet Inertia tonight.

Internet Day

An internet day is a day on which you can use the internet.

For most people, every day is an internet day, so the term is useless. However, when you cannot afford a monthly internet subscription, and you have to buy internet on a day by day basis, the term takes on a whole new meaning.

Flatmate 1: Oh did you hear about .....?
Flatmate 2: No?
Flatmate 1: Google it.

Flatmate 2: It's not an internet day...

Flatmate 1: Internet Day?
Flatmate 2: INTERNET DAY, YES MATE.

Internet mirage

In social networking, an internet mirage is when a user is offline or inactive but appears online or currently active to another computer. This only becomes apparent once the user of that computer attempts to communicate with them. Often, this leads to paranoid feelings of unpopularity, because the user erroneously assumes that the person left because they didn't want to speak to them.

Simon: "DAAVE my good mate, how're you doing?"

Computer: "David is now offline."

Simon: ":O What a douche!... oh wait, it was probably just an internet mirage... or was it?"
