twitteritis

A term describing a not-so-rare messaging condition linked to the use of twitter, a micro blogging technology. The condition arises when one becomes diseased with sharing every aspect of what they are doing all the time, everywhere.
Twitteritis can be identified by overuse of twitter.com - when someone is brushing their hair - they rush to their browser to twitter that they are brushing their hair or to share that they are petting their cat, scooping ice cream...

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.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
