A person on the internet who refuses to make a connection or become friends with another individual based purely on the fact that there is too much geographic distance between the two.
"Eric is such a Distance Snob. He won't be friends with anyone who isn't within ten miles of his house!"
"Can you believe what a Distance Snob she is? If you aren't located in her city she deletes your friendship!"
"I used to be a Distance Snob. But that was before I realized there were cool people who lived more than a half hour away from me."
