Swipe Hype

The swipe hype is when you use an online dating app, such as: Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, etc. and you’re describing it to your friends. The idea is that since you’re swiping left or right, you get on a roll and are either matching with a lot of people or you are not. When you’re matching with a lot, you’ve hit the Swipe Hype.
“Hey man what are you doing on your phone over there?”

“Just hittin up that Swipe Hype to try and meet someone tonight!”

“You meet anyone on the Swipe Hype yet?”

“Nah, not yet. Still on the Swipe Hype though.

Hype Fatigue

On the 45th episode of the Trash Taste Podcast (hosted by Connor "CDawgVA" Colquhoun, Joey "TheAnimeMan" Bizinger, and Garnt "Gigguk" Maneetapho), Gigguk describes his chronic condition of being indifferent when a highly-anticipated game (that he intensively follows for an extended period of time) is released. This leads him to coin a new term: "hype fatigue."

Attempt at a formal definition: when one's hopes and expectations in a game, show, or etc. transitions from a fanatic following into abject indifference when the final product is finally released.

Casual definition: getting so hyped that you eventually tucker yourself out and can no longer hype
"Cyberpunk2077 is coming out in 2 months! The development seems to be going well. I can't wait!"

(two months later) "Release date has been pushed back for another month. That's alright."

(one month later) "Another month. This game is gonna be sooooo good!"

(four months later) "... The game released. But I kinda want to play something else. Hype Fatigue is a bitch."

Hype Aversion

Rejection of an insanely popular idea, game, show, place etc. simply because it is so insanely popular.
I'm enjoying season three of 'Lost'." "Season three came out four or five years ago." "I know, I suffer from hype aversion."
