attextion

Sending a text message for no particular reason other than to "say hello". A play on the words "attention" or "affection".

"For what reason did you message me last night" she asks, "just to send you some attextion", I reply.

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'
