An affliction that causes some female internet users to play the sexpot or drama queen once they figure out that they are practically the only girls at a forum. Sufferers will make nonstop flirty comments , continually bring up their bra size, and make fellatio jokes. Inevitably, a male member will go too far and offend the girl (typically by asking for nude pics or sexual services), leading to much online outrage and drama.

Jason: it sounds like someone has a bad case of Girl on the Internet Syndrome.

The tendency for male internet denizens to, in short, suck up to and give a lot of attention to females on the internet. This raises their chances of ever getting laid with said females by about 0.0%.

Symptoms of girl on the internet syndrome include making a big fuss when a person is found to be female, complimenting her every time she posts a picture, regarding her as a quality poster in a forum even if she isn't, giving her mindless attention, denying having girl on the internet syndrome, making sexist jokes so as to "prove" no preference toward internet females, annoying women, asking women to be e-girlfriends, alienating women, asking for nude pics, and wondering why women don't seem to be on the internet that much.
Person 1: OMG, a girl on the Internet! I better respond every time she posts a pic of herself by saying she looks pretty. Maybe I'll get into her pants!

Person 2: dude, you have girl on the internet syndrome.

Person 1: no I don't! Women belong in the kitchen.

Person 2: uhh, OK.

In·ter·net Fuck·wad Syn·drome,
n.

An Internet disorder where the patient, while acting under the anonymity of an Internet identity, proceeds to act in a manor both disparaging and embarrassing if said individual were to conduct himself in such a way in RL.

The pathology of this disorder stems from the intoxicating effect of freedom from repercussion when violating societal values and morals anonymity can provide. With no perceived penalty for prepubescent, immature behaviour, weaker individuals lose all inhibition, and proceed to mindlessly annoy, harass, abuse, and assault their peers whilst online.

The pathology is succinctly described through John Gabriel's Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory (Penny Arcade; "Green Blackboards (And Other Anomalies)"; 2004/03/19)

Symptoms include, but are not limited to:

·Trolling;

·Posting irreverent, shallow criticisms or comments on YouTube;

·Arguing with an admin on any site;

·Liberally using racial slurs;

·Backing up the use of racial slurs with equally racist rationalizations;

·Creating and distributing Spam; and

·Being a minor on the Internet.

Treatment requires an immediate intervention and disconnection from any Internet feed, as this is the sole vector of Internet pathogens, including text forms, and send buttons.

Abbreviated by the initialism (IFS), and also known as Anonymous Asshat Syndrome (AAS)
Dude, I was watching a pretty awesome video online, and some asshat has to comment, "this is the greatest piece of shite since your mother brought you into this world". What an asshole; if he/she flew their mouth off like that in the real world, they would be eating people's fists regularly. I pity these losers; they suffer from Internet Fuckwad Syndrome.

When someone across the internet makes unbelievable claims without any proof of backing it up and does it repeatedly. They usually do it because they have low self-esteem and want people to like them. Since nobody really knows if someone over the internet is lying or telling the truth.
Person1: Yeah, so I've had sex with over 100 girls, I'm a millionaire, I've got way over 500 cars, and I live in a mansion.
Person2: Oh cool, can I see some pictures of your mansion and cars?
Person1: Oh, sorry, I don't have a camera =(.
Person2: So let me get this straight, you're a millionaire and you live in a mansion, but you can't even buy a measly camera? Dude, you have ILS.
Person1: What's ILS?
Person2: Internet Lying Syndrome.

Internet Inside Syndrome (ISS for short) is an internet phenomenon where internet cultures and social groups develop inside jokes and humor that are nonsensical to outsiders. This disparity can rift groups and individuals apart that don't share the same comedy or understanding, with the observer perceiving the group or person as low-cultured or strange.

An example is a recurring joke in Stan Twitter culture about Beyoncé locking up Sia in her basement. Another is a surreal humor genre consisting of language and images violating common sense and reasoning called Gen Z Humor.
