Google Scholar

Someone who believes that easy access to internet articles on a subject is the same as personal, academic, mastery of a subject. Someone who believes that upvotes and popularity of information on the internet is enough for that information to be trustworthy. Someone who disdains or ignores academic journals, primary sources, and university publications because the headlines in a search engine or social media have taught them all they need to know.

Another student cited wikipedia in my informal logic class. All the recent high school grads start off as Google Scholars.

Google-parrot

A person without an original thought who gets all their ideas directly from the internet or TV. They will often change positions 180 degrees without blinking an eye, just because they saw something new on their Screens.

Me talking to someone who fully supported vax mandates (Your body, our choice) last week ranting and raving about abortion rights (My body, my choice) this week: "You do realize that's exactly the opposite of what you were saying last week, don't you? Are you a Google-parrot, or what?"

Google Poser

This term refers to a person who pretends to have already known facts, events or definitions that they secretly Google on their phone or computer over the course of the conversation.

Jane and John are having a phone conversation about a topic that they both know very little about. Minutes into the conversations John suddenly becomes an expert on the topic. John is such a “Google poser” because he is passing off Google knowledge as his own!

Google nod

A succinct reply to acknowledge understanding of an obscure word or phrase after you have quickly Googled it. Better than flat out asking what something means and less arrogant than feigning previous knowledge of a subject.

Conversation via cell phone text:

Non basketball fan: "Your team, Kansas, did well today right?"

Kansas fan: "Yeah they did! Rock chalk jayhawk!"

...moment to Google the phrase...

Non basketball fan: "Google nod."
