"Postitus" defined

How about a fun exerciser in urban language? Tonight's waste of space on the board made me think of a new term to define forum posters that just don't know when to quit.

I would love to hear how you would define "postitus." Extra credit points for creativity and the big winner gets publishing rights here and on UD.com.

Postitus: The condition of spine curvature caused by repeatedly leaning into a computer screen to read responses to one's postings on internet information boards. Severe cases can eventually leave the sufferer bent over double. While the exact causation is still under scrutiny, one study theorized that the curvature happens to ease the insertion of one's head into the posterior region.
