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'

romantic attraction

Romantic attraction is difficult to define, as it is made up of many components. The two most distinguishable components are (1) limerance, aka obsessive thoughts about wanting to be near one's crush, to find out their interests, having a "butterflies in stomach" feeling, etc., and (2) a desire to form a romantic relationship, aka wanting to be another's girlfriend/boyfriend/partner, to go on dates and do other romantic-coded activities (e.g. kissing, although not everyone sees kissing as romantic, celebrating Valentine's Day), etc.

For alloromantic people, limerance often leads to a desire to form a romantic relationship, but someone who identifies as grayromantic may experience one without experiencing the other. An aromantic person does not experience romantic attraction. A quoiromantic person may feel that the concept of romantic attraction is inapplicable, or they may not be able to distinguish romantic attraction from other forms of attraction.
Mary identifies as grayromantic because she rarely experiences romantic attraction.
