pre-internet

Before the internet.

When people still spoke to each other in person, and weren't as socially awkward and scared of confrontation.
And people were less self-aggrandizing and focused on living a faux life online.
Back when 'politically correct' wasn't as rampant.

THEN (Pre-Internet):

In person:
"Hey Sally, let's go on a date!"
"Sure thing Mark!"

NOW (Post-Internet):

On a computer:
"Unnghhffff huhhhh....(LIKE)"
"Hey there, thanks for the like! Please follow me and comment on how much you like the breakfast I had every day, and exclaim how intelligent and attractive I am - or claim to be online!" "And don't ever have a different opinion than me on anything, otherwise I will mute/block you, and I may fall into depression because I have no coping mechanism!"
"...."

Ex: No 'Kip Drordys' before the internet.

Internet arrogance

The kind of arrogance that stems from the feeling of having seen everything on the internet, so that nothing is new or cool anymore. A symptom is the constant use of the word "old".

"Have you heard about *insert news from 2 seconds ago*?"
"Old"
"Classic case of internet arrogance"

Internet Fairies

The magical powers that define when and if your internet will work for no logical reason. They are occasionally wooed by begging and/or excessive force to computer equipment (although the latter can also upset them beyond reconciliation).

I spent three hours trying to connect to Comcast and then suddenly the Internet Fairies smiled upon me.

internet sniper

Someone who creates a fake Facebook, My Space or blogging ID with the intent of gaining someone's trust or getting "friend" status so they can create havoc. The sniper will do things like comment negatively on a photo, post a falsehood, or make rude comments with the intent to either embarass or piss off the other party.

I got on this chick's Facebook last night. I commented on her photo that her boyfriend was a JackBag and his hair looked like he was wearing a helmet. She was pissed and kicked me off! I love being an Internet Sniper!

internet pioneer

Somebody who used the internet before any of the major sites (like myspace facebook youtube and even google) were around. Internet pioneers were the first users of the internet, and they know what they're doing when they go online.

Person1: Why is my internet being stupid?
Person2: Try clearing your cache and cookies.
Person1: Wow you are so smart, you must be an internet pioneer.
