Pornipedia 

A pornipedia is a walking talking depraved individual with a derelict moral compass that spins like there is no magnetic pole.

The pornipedia is a walking talking porn encyclopedia who can recite any and every odd porn trivia from memory and has a photographic memory of porn stars, scenes and pop shots.

The pornipedia is really a rare being and requires a constant feeding of porn. It appears that there is an increase in the occurrence of live pornipedias since the adoption of internet porn world wide.

Pornipedia's spend an inordinate amount of time on 4chan's adult channels.
Hey pornipedia, who is that pasty skinned <interrupts> "Stoya"

Hey pornipedia, who's the guy that shoots ropes and looks like <interrupts> "Peter north"

peripetaeia 

(noun) From Ancient Greek dramatic tradition, this usually comes after a great revelation (anagnorisis) has occurred, and consists of a reversal of fortunes. Thus, a king who rules wisely for fifty years, then discovers that he killed his father and married his mother without knowing it, is at that point in time a participant in a peripetaeia.
Film Critic 1: "I was relaxing with a few porn vids the other night and it turns out one of them was a gay porn tape that I'd shoplifted by mistake. Well, guess who was starring in that gay tape?"

Film Critic 2: "Dude, I don't know. I don't watch gay porn."

Film Critic 1: "Me neither, but get this: it was Peter North."

Film Critic 2: "No way!"

Film Critic 1: "I swear, it was Peter North. And another guy was doing him up the butt and then he comes all over the schoolroom table."

Film Critic 2: "Well this certainly makes for a very dramatic peripetaeia, coming as it does hot on the heels of an anagnorisis."

Film Critic 1: "Yes, and we might even say that his latent homosexuality is his hamartia."
