A tag epidemic usually occurs on Facebook. What happens is, a person will tag a lot of other people on a photo and then the people tagged also tag more people. What ends up happening is that more and more people are tagged and leave comments on the photos that turn to full conversations between 30 people, which in turn leaves many, many notifications to check, and clogged email. A recent picture has been a cartoon picture with names describing a trait of your friends and tells you to tag others. Has been known to cause severe frustration, telling people to shut up or stop commenting, and untagging. It has also been known to be a cyber disease. They may also cause your email inbox to look like spam.
Guy 1- "Dude, that new picture is a helluva tag epidemic. I went home to go on Facebook and I had 178 notifications! All about one picture! People were even talking about the tag epidemic on the photo."
Guy 2- "Luckily I got only 56 notifications"

An epidemic taking the community of patronizing coworkers by storm. It was discovered in the year 2016 by the same man who discovered Hubert's Constant.
Symptoms include and are absolutely not limited to the following:
Affected person(s):
-will suddenly happen to know everything about everything.
-will correct every pointless slip of the tongue or grammar mistake that you noticed but didn't bother to fix due to the lack of importance.
-will usually begin their sentences with either "aaaactually....", "You DO know...", "You DO realize..." or some other cocky, condescending way of trying to educate you about something.
-are incapable of humility.
-are incapable of admitting they do not know something.
-usually come up with shit.
-will use big words they don't understand to sound more photosynthesis.
-will repeat their 'intelligent' remarks until confirmation that somebody heard them. This may take days.
This sickness is especially contagious in children exceeding the age of 18. There is currently no cure but death.

"Of course I do"
"WELL THEN I just CAN'T comprehend WHY someone would make SUCH a STUPID mistake."
"... Fuck you man"

Facebook Epidemic: Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose at least 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.(Or I just literally tagged randoms eventually) (To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)
