Fauxmale

Some new, neat, awful internet words for 2005:

•Crappernetting - Using the Internet from a wireless device, such as a PDA or cellphone, while going to the bathroom. "Advanced Crappernetting," which is using the Internet while standing up and peeing, is only recommended for experts or people who have highly dextrous tongues.

•Fauxmale - A male who impersonates a female online. The includes (but is not limited to) placing a female's photo on your biography page, playing as a female character in an online game, or using a feminine username such as "_-={bUtTeRfLi}=-_" for any instant messaging program. The major difference between males and females online is that the males usually possess significantly larger boobs.

•Internet Meat - Any food product ordered through the Internet, from pizza to steak.

EXAMPLE:

Person #1: "Hey man, do you want to go out to Arby's tonight?"
Person #2: "No thanks, I just ordered some Internet Meat from pizzahut.com."
Person #1: (Confused) "God, you're a fag."

•Lagoff - The temporary feeling of confusion and disorientation when logging off from a MMORPG and having absolutely no idea what time it is in real life. Further queasiness can be compounded by logging off the MMORPG during nighttime in the game, and realizing it's daytime in real life. This is also known as the Lagoff Disorientation Syndrome (LDS), and was claimed to be a factor in the Pope's recent death.

•Legal Friendly - A description of any person who threatens to sue at the slightest provocation. Recent studies prove that 87% of the Internet is legal friendly, believing that lawsuits can (and should) be filed if somebody makes fun of you, if somebody quotes something you wrote somewhere at some time, or if somebody writes something you disagree with in any aspect.

EXAMPLE:

Person #1: "Haha, I just read your AIM away message, that's pretty stupid. Is it a quote from Slipknot lyrics? I hate that band."
Person #2: "I HOP U GOT A GUD LAWYAR CUZ IM GUNNA SUE U 4 THAT SLANDAR AND LIBLE U ASHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Person #1: "Calm down, I was just kidding."
Person #2: "OMG THATS LIEING UNDER OATH!!! IM ARESTING U 4 PURGURY!!!"

Feel free to counter any interthreats with legal friendly-speak if you really want to engage in an authentic online conversation.

EXAMPLE:

Person #1: "IM GONNA BEAT UR FAG FACE WITH MY STEAL TOEDED BOOTS!!!"
Person #2: "THATS A THREAT IM CALLIN THE COPS AND GONNA SUE U FOR THREATENING ME WITH HARM"
Person #1: "HAHAHAHA I AM A LEVEL 63 POLICE OFFICER AND THEY DONT CARE WERE GONA STILL BEAT TEH CRAP OUTA U GAY ASS!!!!!!!!!"
Person #2: "OH YEAH WELL IM A LEVEL 86 LAWYER AND UR GOIN TO JAIL ASS FAG"

•Shout N' Run - Sending an "important" message to somebody over AIM, then immediately disappearing (often to another dimension) before the person can reply.

EXAMPLE:

Person #1: "Oh my god, are you there? I just got back from the hospital. You won't fucking believe what the doctor said. Jesus Christ, I can't believe it myself, this is horrible."
Person #2: (Replying three seconds later) "I'm here, what happened? Are you okay?"
Person #1: "AUTO AWAY MESSAGE: A girl is much more than she seems, not a toy by any means. Underneath the makeup and hair, there's a sign saying handle with care."
Person #2: "Huh?"
