The fear of screaming. Named after Maria Sharapova, whose success in tennis was due mainly to the off-setting effect of primal screams she emitted constantly during her matches. Rationalized to tennis officials as a release of the explosive energy required for hard serves and ground strokes, the main intention was to psyche and dominate her opponents by derailing their concentration using irritating aural noise. Constant exposure to this noise over long matches can be shown to leave an oily plaque on the eardrum and cause dizziness and a rattling sensation in the ears. Potential opponents of such screamers often suffer from Sharaphovia.
When will tennis officials finally ban the infantile tactics used by some players of screaming. How many women in the sport must be handicapped by the dreaded Sharaphovia.
The extreme fear of being without a smartphone, even if just for a moment.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
