Electrocution, or the act of being electrocuted, is simply the improving the attractiveness of females through electronic means. It derives from the attraction men feel toward women on TV or otherwise electronically transmitted. Scientists discovered that many men found the images of women reproduced on their TV screens (and later computer screens) were rated 10% cuter than those same women in real life. Thus the technique of making oneself more “cute” through electronic transmission was termed electrocution (“electro” from electron and “cution” from the George W. Bush dictionary – a shortened version of “cutification” – to improve looks).It is contended that the term predates George W. Bush in dialectician circles but no one listens to nerds anyway.
History:
The history of electrocution technically predates TV. Photographs, while not electronic and not even originally captured by electronic devices, were the first reproductions of females to be rated more attractive than the model. However a term for this phenomenon wasn’t coined until much later. Gabriel Lippmann, one of the pioneers of color photography, attempted to coin the phrase “Interfering Attraction” based on his method of color reproduction. It was too science-y sounding for the general riffraff. The term “Lipp Looker” may have been a better choice.
