Violent Affection Syndrome (VAS)

When babies, dogs, kids or other people are so cute, and it becomes so aggravating, that you just want to squeeze them until their eyeballs pop out.

Karla bumped in to old-friend Susie on the street, with her three-month-old, Emmett, decked out in a sailor suit, giggling endlessly. "He is so adorable in that get-up that I just want to slap him," Karla remarked to Susie, who quickly explained that she was suffering from Violent Affection Syndrome (VAS). Susie took Emmett and kept walking down the street.

Attention Purchase

When a guy so desperate for female attention he will use his dad's credit card to donate $100s to a random streamer, just to see his name on the screen or a "heart" on Youtube. Often found on Twitch cam streams and anything involving pokimane.

Joe: "Man I sent this girl on Twitch $500 and she said thanks!"
Jim: "Dude, talking to girls irl is free! Stop with the attention purchase!"

attention geekers

Probably work in neu media or meme-pushers....meeeeeeme.

People who go to pop-up stuff, small but spectacular and special.

Are really into every single piece of technology regardless whether it's use or ornament. But, and this is really important, know all vital cultural references usually through films. Original Star Wars in particular.

'Cos it's all just so wicked. (and cool, right?)

after The Gadget Show UK

Typical attention geekers scenario;

Me 1) 'waaaahay, I've just turned my Star Wars light sabre into a smart-sabre so I can pay for my bus ticket Jedi-like. Woosh'

Me1.1) 'wow, that's so cool...must get me one, mopho'

Facebook Attention Question

A question a person puts as their status they can easily find out by typing it in google, rather than wasting time and typing it in facebook and waiting for a reply, google does it in (0.06 seconds)

Facebook Attention Question Ex: Hey people, how do I make it so that it says where I'm at on here, you know, the locations thingy!?

attention whore

Label given to any person who craves attention to such an extent that they will do anything to receive it. The type of attention (negative or positive) does not matter.

You're such a GD attention whore!

attention troll

someone who frequents Facebook Pages or Youtube Videos to post comments in order to get attention.

Looks like the attention troll made another negative comment on the youtube video just to get attention.
