The impressive ability of a person to spend hours watching the Facebook status of their friends but never actually commenting upon a single thing. This person is usually extremely intelligent and vastly superior to their acolytes, which is why they decide not to write. However, their skill is tragic because they constantly need to watch other people's status online in order to quietly sneer at the lack of real quality in their posts.
This is usually acquired by a person who is very new to online social media and progresses over time. Not even the use of the 'like' button is used, showing a very distant, aloof but incredibly smart stance by the facewatcher.
Example: 'Marvin would miss food and drink for days because he was too busy facewatching.'

Urban Dictionary: FHMd
Pronounced 'fummed', this is the experience a young lady has when she appears in any man's magazine with very few / or no clothes on. Whereas in the past it would be seen as low-brow, tacky and socially unacceptable for a young lady to appear in such a state in such a public manner, it is now generally accepted as the rites of passage for a young lady to become famous or to increase her fame. It has become so ingrained as part of western culture, that many young girls want to become FHMd when they grow up and see women who have been FHMd as role models to aspire to become.
The British tabloid newspaper called The Sun began the process of FHMing young women via their printing a new topless woman on page 3 of their paper every day. This activity has since integrated with the social phenomenon known as 'men's magazines' to create an entire male-centered industry of FHMd young women.
Once a woman is no longer desirable she is excluded from the ranks of FHMable women and must find another activity to partake in.
Example: Lydia Dormouse has recently become FHMd by appearing semi-naked in several of the top men's magazines.

Urban Dictionary: Celebrianity
The newly founded religion based upon worship of celebrities. This has become a growing trend in recent years, but its roots can be traced back to antiquity through the worship of famous personages such as Cleopatra, Julius Caesar, Alexander the Great, Hannibal, and up to modern times with superstars such as Madonna, Lady Gaga and David Hasslehoff. Historical scholars began documenting and worshipping celebrianity through their books written about famous figures such as Napoleon, Stalin and Hitler. What once was a small portion of humanity worshipping notable persons as their gods, has now become close to a majority of the population in the First World.
Media sources such as newspapers, online news and celebrity hungry magazines have become the fluid bible for the true believers. Just like any other religion there is a large diversity of beliefs between one another. Although there are core beliefs, some believers worship all celebrities as one, some only worship their favourite celebrities, others define a celebrity as a person who has reached class A status, while some worship all celebrities regardless of their class status (even so-called Z-listers). Many sects and cults have sprung up after fracturing from the original celebrianity to worship under their own rules.
It is also known that some believers live their entire lives in the same manner as their favourite celebrity, even identifying themselves completely as that celebrity. Some believers even become celebrities in their own right, which can cause a schism and a real test of their faith.
Example: Gillian Templeton is a staunch believer in the faith of celebrianity. She reads all celebrity magazines on a daily basis, has communion with fellow believers, and spreads the word of her celebrianity to infidels.

Urban Dictionary: Sexeffluophile
The lover of leaking sex acts through any medium (although sex video is by far the most common) to the general public. This is a common trait amongst the rich and famous who wish to revitalise their failing career or boost sales for a new film they are starring in / producing, a new book / piece of music they are releasing or to launch a new product (perfume, clothes range etc). In the past this bizarre behaviour would be met with disapproval and castigation from the general public. However, this unusual activity is now endorsed and almost totally accepted as part of a celebrity's duty to their fanbase.
The sexeffluophile will generally deny being involved in releasing their sex acts to the general public due to the lingering stigma still attached to openly admiitting to suffering from sexeffluophilia.
Example: Johnny Jupiter is a sexeffluophile and has leaked nude photographs and sex videos of himself all over the internet.

Urban Dictionary: Autobioaddictus
The terrible addiction of writing more than one autobiography in your own lifetime. This is found to be most prevalent among reality TV stars and celebrities in the early 21st century. Normally, for the autobioaddictat the first autobiography is written just after they have become famous. The second one is usually released within 12-18 months afterwards. More follow over the course of their life to ensure their reading audience is updated on their life developments. Katie Price aka 'Jordan' is an unfortunate sufferer of this cruel syndrome.
Example: 'After Tommy became famous through appearing in The Only Way is Essex, he began suffering from autobioaddictus. He has released five autobiographies to date over the past six years.'

Urban Dictionary: Beadleism
The lost art of using creotene and stereoids to develop one's writing hand to a gigantic size. This leaves the other hand at a smaller size and severe disadvantage. The term stems from former 80s and 90s TV favourite Jeremy Beadle who suffered from this condition. Hence the term 'beadleism'.
Example: 'By the age of 45 years old I became seriously addicted to beadleism and my right hand grew to at least five times the size of my left hand.'
