Status effect

Mog

A very serious competition in taking up space. Two fictional characters turn the performance of status into a spectacle.

Internet theory

The Hypergamy Graph

A parody of the internet’s irresistible urge to explain relationships with arrows. The confidence is part of the joke; this is not research.

Unexpected power

Basic Human Empathy

An unexpectedly powerful move in an argument: remembering there is another person on the other side of the screen.

Platform lore

300 View Jail

For anyone who has refreshed the same view count one too many times. A creator-frustration metaphor, not a claim about a platform’s algorithm.

LTN, MTN and HTN

The same fictional character with three different labels.

Assigned by the internet

LTN

Low-Tier Normie. Same character, arbitrary label. The joke is the ranking system, not the person being ranked.

Assigned by the internet

MTN

Mid-Tier Normie. Nothing about the character has changed. The internet has simply issued a new verdict.

Assigned by the internet

HTN

High-Tier Normie. The third label for the same character. These tiers are online slang, not measures of anyone’s worth.

Collection information
