Phonosphere

The surface of a phonograph, esp. of your favorite record.

When he spins records, he tends to get lost in his own phonosphere.

pornosphere

The pornosphere is a dense layer of internet transport that is stratified in download speed, with faster layers higher up and slower layers farther down. This is in contrast to the spamosphere near the internet's surface, which is slower higher up and faster farther down. The pornosphere is situated between about 100 kbps and 1400 kbps at moderate connectivity. The pornosphere sits directly above the spamosphere and directly below the tunesosphere.

The vertical stratification, with faster layers above and slower layers below, makes the pornosphere dynamically stable: there is no regular convection and associated turbulence in this part of the internet.

As we can see on the map, a high pressure system was building up in the pornosphere today, which was moving from prague to moscow.

Pinnosphere

The collective of all the user-uploaded images on the internet on copyright-infringing platforms such as Pinterest and its clones, largely without consent of the creators/authors/photographers, for the purposes of image consumption on the image-scraping site. These images are often replicated in large numbers or attributed to search engine image searches, and may rob traffic from the creators' websites.

There are more of my images in the pinnosphere than there are on my website! I lost all my visitors. Why do I bother creating new content if the pinnosphere is making money from it instead of me? It's ironic how the people that think they're celebrating my creativity are actually killing it.
