Kickstarter Syndrome

When you are promised something amazing, and encourage/work/pay to make it happen, but are really numb to the probability that it's inevitably going to be a let down, or not come to fruition at all.

Kickstarter Syndrome defined:

Person A: Did you see the new Kickstarter for Megamanolamarama?
Person B: Yea! I'm already a $100 tier backer!
Person A: Me too! AWESOME!

- Scenario A -
Release day: Person A & B: This game... sucks! Why did we back it again?

-Scenario B-
Person A as an old man: Remember when we gave money to some people online to make something cool we could experience?

Person B as an old man: Yea we were stupid back then weren't we?

Kickstarter

A crowd-funding website where you give money to a company, artist, filmmaker, game developer, etc. to fund their project. A project could be anything, like a game, product, album, film, etc. If you pledge enough money, you can get rewards given to you by the maker of the project. Generally, it's a website that allows people to make their projects with money from the Internet.

Did you see the new Kickstarter? The original Banjo-Kazooie developers want to make a spiritual successor!

kickstarter pimp

Someone who clogs up their social communications promoting an endless stream of kickstarter campaigns.

"Oh no, there's Brian. He's such a kickstarter pimp!"

"Debbie texted me last night. I thought it was to talk about us, but she kickstarter pimped me instead."

"I haven't slept in days, all my friends and family have blocked me, and Kickstarter is my homepage. Oh no! I've become a kickstarter pimp!"
