Writing about lowbrow things in a highbrow way.
Occurs frequently on blogs and Tumblr.
Person 1: "I just wrote a Tumblr post about how the remix of R. Kelly's Ignition is best song of the decade."
Person 2: "Dude, you realize that you are meta-enabling?"
Person 1: "Yeah, but I need to generate pageviews without losing my high-end advertising — or my self-regard."

an adjective to describe genres of games, music, clothing, etc., that stray from the current meta. Also a formal term for bootleg.
Person 1: Hey what games do you play?
Person 2: Oh, I mainly play Minecraft.
Person 1: Wow, that's pretty off-meta.

Abstract:
A joke which can not be considered either sincere or ironic.
When used as a feedline (1) the idea is to judge the audiences viewpoint, and respond to it. When used as a punchline (2) meta-irony works as a mirror, like in abstract art, inviting the audience to make up their own mind if the joke was serious or ironic, while leaving the meta-ironic person/comedian invulnerable to criticism because their viewpoint is not clear.
1) "Women are like dogs"
To an offensive reception - You can follow with; "They clean food from the kitchen floor" or "they will always be afraid of burglars"
To an amused reception - You can follow with; "They can't stop being bitches" or "they bark more at other bitches" or
"They will only shut up once you feed them"
2) " Trans women's pussies are like vegan-burgers - Thats not blood that beet juice "
Some may think - "Well, veganism and trans are both progressive issues. So the comparison is true"
Some may think - "It is true that trans women's pussies are not real pussies, and thus trans women are not real women"
Conclusion.
A meta-ironic joke reveals nothing about the users viewpoint, and is intentional.
nb. This should not be confused with a purely ineffective ironic joke, or with English dry humour where the idea is to try to be taken seriously revealing the naïvety of the audience.
"He likes meta-irony he is not a communist. He is not a capitalist either, don't take him too seriously he was being meta-ironic"

A meta-flirt is a process of continuing mutual flirting and taking it to another level (emails and texts, witty stunts, double entendres, private jokes, practical jokes, etc...) only after the in-person flirting has become impossible due to distance and/or being involved in other relationships. Part of the motivation for meta-flirting is an effort to continue the relationship or "flirtationship" because one or both flirts enjoys grabbing the attention of the other and is not ready to let go of the fun.
I LMAO when I received my last email from Chris. He sent me a private joke referring to the flirt-fest we had when we were at the conference together last week. He was meta-flirting with me! I am going to meta-flirt back and keep this going. Maybe I'll play a practical joke on him too ;)

A fail that is not achievable by most people. contrary to popular belief epic failure is not the highest form of failure, meta failure is. if you ever achieve meta failure you should A)kill yourself and do the world a favor B)never again partake in the activity that you achieved meta failure in as long as you live
Examples: bush, Enron, Antarctica.
person 1: "dude, that girl just choked on air"
Person 2: "meta fail"
