iPressure

Like peer pressure but over the internet. When a friend pressures you to change your Facebook status for some cause that they care about such as supporting the troops or raising breast cancer awareness.

Peer Pressure

A disease pandemic that spreads across most schools and even work places. This crippling disease has the power to turn people from leaders into mind controlled sheep. This can ruin the lives of whoever is infected making them commit to actions they don't want to partake in. It is best to stay away from these types of people as the disease can spread onto unsuspecting victims. People infected with this disease will try to encourage healthy individuals to participate in unhealthy activities that will only hinder their development, including doing drugs, crime, unprotected sex, and many more disastrous activities. There is no cure, however, it can be treated over time and eventually go away with enough proper treatment. A person can be immune to this disease, meaning that s/he has enough self confidence to not be persuaded by the infected. These people will most likely lead successful lives and not end up like the worthless pieces of shit around them.
Symptoms of Peer Pressure:
inferiority complex
loss of individuality
is a pushover
having a lot of fake friends
drug problems
STD's from sex
having weak morals
desire to fit in
fear of being different
acting like an ass toward the uninfected

Treatment for Peer Pressure:
simply saying no
hanging out with the right crowd
practicing having strong morals
practicing confidence
developing meaningful friendships
staying away from the infected

Infected: "Hey you wanna smoke this blunt?"
Immune person: "No thanks, I'm good."
Infected: "Oh come on, if you don't smoke this then everyone will think you're a loser
Immune person: "Look, I don't want end up being a worthless piece of shit like yourself."
Infected: "Dude stop being such a pussy and smoke this blunt."
Immune person: "I SAID I DON'T WANT TO YOU FUCKING CUNT!!!"
