What Does This Mean?
A gradual, often unnoticed slide deeper into terminally-online behavior, where someone who started as a casual user finds their reference points, humor, and reactions becoming indistinguishable from the most extremely-online accounts they follow.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"I used to just lurk, now I have hot takes on discourse I learned about four hours ago. Full terminally online drift."
LORE & ORIGIN
Named around 2023-2024 as a more specific successor to 'terminally online,' describing not the end state itself but the slow trajectory toward it — the drift is gradual enough that no single day feels like the turning point.
