Heatenings

If your heatenings make you sweat this much, chances are you're also fat.

Heatenings is an internet disease, and one of the only internet diseases that causes symptoms to manifest IRL. It is triggered whenever you view things you don't want to see. However, while being presented with shocking news the most common cause of the condition, it is also possible to contract it if someone calls your deviantART fanfiction shit. It's also a fairly common meme on Ylilauta (known there as kuumotus), usually manifesting itself as a reaction face of Riku Rantala from a Finnish TV show called Madventures. On less mongol-infested parts of the internet, a picture of a man with a towel is used instead.

The meaning of the word itself depends on the context: it can range from anxiety to fear to a more general feeling of intense discomfort. The severity of one's heatenings is measured on the Scoville scale.
