“OOP in school consists mostly of memorizing a bunch of vocabulary terms like "encapsulation" and "inheritance" and taking multiple-choice quizzicles on the difference between polymorphism and overloading. Not much harder than memorizing famous dates and names in a history class, OOP poses inadequate mental challenges to scare away first-year students.”

“Back on Earth, teens and young adults were getting down with Snapchat, the Fastest Rising Startup of 2012 that was on a quick, meteoric rise to the top of the teen texting throne. And when they weren't snapping they were on BuzzFeed, the Best Time Sink of 2012 with all of the quizzicles and listicles.”

“In October, one of the company's monstrous acquisitions, the TV and movie empire NBCUniversal, revealed that it had peeled off $200 million to buy another taste of BuzzFeed, the trendy shareable-content producer. BuzzFeed has been best known — until recently — for its many irreverent lists and quizzes and "listicles." And I guess "quizzicles." These include the recent viral sensation "How Millennial Are You?" and a 2015 debate, involving millions of agitated people, over whether a striped dress was white and gold or black and blue.”

“[BuzzFeed is] A sad rotting corpse stinking up the interwebs. I think it's just one person creating an infinite number of quizzicles.”
