LazyWeb: New Word for Inane Non-Scandal Scandal
Once again, I need a new word. What do you call it when an online pseudo-scandal emerges, explodes into everywhere-ness and then disappears into self-referential inanity and irrelevance, all while you're not paying attention?
Offline, you might call it a tempest in a teacup/teapot, or something like that. But what's the online equivalent, or at least a less cliched way of saying the same thing? I'd just say "idiocy", but there has to be a more colorful way of capturing how the blog natives regularly lose their mind about nonsense.
All ideas appreciated.
