–noun
| 1. | a fictional being or entity, often someone who is claimed to lurk at high school basketball games or work deep inside of the University athletic department. The source is responsible for giving the message board recruiting junkie his fix of top secret information regarding the hottest high school football “studs”. “Sources” are used to project credibility upon the message board poster who likes to pose as a recruiting expert to his message board peers. The source is usually a) false b) second, third, and even fourth hand gossip or c) completely fabricated. All message board recruiting junkies are required by the Patriot Act to claim a source or multiple sources. Failure to report a source will lead to message board shame and sometimes envy. Message board recruiting junkies often fantasize that their source is providing them with secrets that nobody else knows. The junkie reports these secrets in cryptic fashion. Common tactics include the vague reference to big news, followed by the winking emocon. Other junkies give personification to animals or inanimate objects. For instance, a little bird. The most common tactic used by the junkie is to state a prediction as fact, base it on a fabricated source, and then add the grinning emoticon to portray the delusion that the junkie knows something that the others do not. In drastic cases, the source can become the object of fantasy or desire. Though fabricated, the imaginary source (through promises of studs and stars) can replace soocial interaction and companionship with the opposite sex. Scientists in Perth, Australia have concluded that the source is responsible for longer erections than either Cialis or Viagra and can actually cause heart palpitations in older men with jock sniffing tendencies.
