Crazy Internet People

Origin (Location WB studios, 11/21/2005):

Interviewer "You know what I realized about your show, it's also the most analyzed show."
Lauren Graham "It's the most analyzed?"
Interviewer "Yeah analyzed always..."
Lauren Graham "By who, those crazy internet people."

Introduced by Lauren Graham while referring to the people who tear apart every sentence and action stated and performed on their favorite show Gilmore Girls. By people, known to be one, referred to as being CIP.

CIP also tend to know everything and all about Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel and the other actors who star on Gilmore Girls. Since the introduction the phrase has been sweeping forums on the internet. CIP, besides wanting to know all about anything remotely related to Gilmore Girls, also have the tendency to freak out as a result of being very emotionally attached to this show. These freak outs can range from being extremely overexited when one sees a pop-tart or automatically form the word 'Dirty' in ones mind as a response to a certain sentence spoken by somebody else, to feeling depressed during the long summer-hiatus, to feeling emotionally instable when certain characters on this show act differently than expected or wished for. During times when a member of the CIP, a Crazy Internet Person, sees all wishes and expectations in a certain episode of this show fulfilled, this person can suffer from very happy, giddy feelings which comes close to a state of ecstasy. It's wise not to interrupt this person in these moment of pure bliss, since this person can react extremely defensive and simply seems to not want to be disturbed while being in this state. This phenomenon appears to be a hard one to understand when a person does not belong to this group of people.

Within CIP there are certain sub-divisions which can lead to confrontations within these divisions, known to CIP as 'shipper-wars'. Not every CIP chooses to belong to a certain division though. Even though these 'wars' can lead to harsh words being said, hurt feelings and wounded souls even, these can also lead to hysterically, funny situations (which again only can be recognised by CIP themselves).

Besides some CIP belonging to different sub-divisions, CIP can also be divided in two main groups that overrule the sub-division one belongs to. By determining if a CIP visits certain threads where spoilers, regarding their beloved show, are revealed and discussed or chooses not to visit these threads and try to remain SpoilerFree (SF), one can define whether one is non-SF or SF. Some CIP can go through extreme times of hardship trying to remain SF. Some CIP regularly make attempts to become SF, but simply being overcurious makes them fail at these attempts time after time. There are, on rare occasions, very sad occurences where by accident a SF CIP gets certain spoilerish information.

In the end all members of CIP appear to be bounded by their love for this show, even if the love for this show is based on different aspects. CIP also tend to defend another CIP in any situation, even when belonging to a different sub-division, when being attacked by a NON-CIP.

Used in a sentence as: Look at those Crazy internet People in the corner.
Used as a question: By who the Crazy internet people?
