The act of cringing at somebody who is deliberately aware of what makes you and most people cringe. They themselves may even cringe at it. Yet, that certain somebody continues to write an entire essay about it.
Journalist: Now before you start to cringe at the mere word 'tik tok', we did a meta-analysis of all tik toks published after covid-19 and found that a large portion of tik toks are actually more educational than the standard high school curriculum.
Me: Ugh, meta-cringe.

Someone famous for being famous (or infamous), particularly in the entertainment industry. A meta-celebrity is a well known celebrity, who has not done anything particularly noteworthy to justify their Fame. The late Anna Nicole Smith and Paris Hilton are two contemporary examples. Meta-celebrities do not always orginate in the entertainment industry, but they nearly always gravitate to it, often as a last ditch effort to extend their "fifteen minutes" as their profile starts to wane.

The late Anna Nicole Smith was a classic meta-celebrity

Beyond hip. The next phase in the History of Cool (time for John Leland to add a chapter to his book) Non-mainstream culture (and it's trends) will be heading to a more organic, fluid phase. Culture is taking a swing away from the the image conscious, cooler-than-thou attitude of the Hipster sect, moving into a cycle where simplicity, inner pursuits and brightness are the nexus.
Culture runs in cycles and the next phase will feature a meta-hip attitude.
"Meta editor" describes an anime editor that literally only follows the meta. The meta while creating this post would be some shit like Demon Slayer, Naruto and Jujutsu Kaisen.
Just editing one of the meta anime doesn't make you instantly a meta editor. To be a meta editor you have to only do basic shit and repeat the same shit so your edit looks 1:1 the same as every other meta edit.
The edits where everyone literally simps for a demon anime prostitute are a good example because there's literally no difference in any of the edits.
Oh and if you're a meta editor then kyoshia will haunt you and appear in your room during your sleep paralysis.
Become a meta editor today by editing demon tiddies with the same transitions, etc like everyone else!

when something is so self-referential (i.e., meta), that it looses all meaning because it is too confusing to follow. A good example is the movie Inception.
"Dude, so how about I am making a movie about how I am producing a film about how went to the theater to watch a movie about a group of people making a movie about the film industry?"
"I'm lost in a meta fog, bro. I think you need to simplify."

The concept of self-reference as the only paradigm of reality.
The assertion that the material has no reality aside from its aesthetic (appearance (phenomenona)); and is therefore real only in self-reference (meta-"real").
Argues that the linear past is real only in self-reference (aesthetic); that the past is not MATERIALLY real; and that self-reference is indicative of a cyclical future rather than a linear past.
Stipulates self-reference as a paradigm in which time and aesthetic are one.
Indicates that the conscious self appears from the self-reference between the material and the chronistic.
Material is only real insomuch as it is meta-real.
