A male or female user of social media, mainly Twitter, who uses hashtag in an inappropriate way. One or more of the following characteristics will need to be present:-
1. Using 5 or more hashtags in
one tweet;
2. Hashtagging something that is so long or
random, there is no chance of it ever trending (
eg. #havingamediterraneanpastabakewiththemanofmydreams);
3. Using "#nofilter",
even when they have put an effect on or edited the photo;
4. Tweeting with hashtags at least
3 times an hour about:-
a) usual tasks or household chores; and/or
b) their pets (eg. My
chihuahua just did a whoopsie behind the sofa #smellydog #ilovemyrat)
5. Saying the word "hashtag" before phrases in face to face conversations.
The more of these characteristics that are present, then the more hashtagslaggy, the hashtagslag is.
