asciioholic 

-person addicted to inserting ascii art into their facebook statuses; neglecting responsibilities to spend hours trying to make the damn pics fit status & comment boxes.

-as of 2010, most likely an overeducated, sexually frustrated, tina fey wannabe who has only recently discovered ascii art, special characters, emoticons, upsidedowntext.com,etc. & thinks her sarcastic use of such facebling translates.

A little late to the game, she none-the-less can't stop herself, similar to other internet based addictions.

experts theorize that she attains a "high" by being the 1st in her once hip, non-computer geek, cynical group of fb friends to show that such status-magic is even possible, reliving a thrill similar to being the only one to know where that rave was "going down" (c. 1991).

peers found her first asci-art status thrilling, her 2nd one pretty witty... but now just feel the need to "hide" her on their newsfeed - everyone is totally embarrassed by it.

*CDC warning: asciioholics are at increased risk of discovering urbandictionary.com, fark.com, etc. and other HTML-based diseases. Mass defriendation may be warranted.

christmas "cards" consist of just posting a status similar to:
…………(¯`O´¯)
…………*./ | \ .*
…………..*♫*.
………, • '*♥* ' • ,
