# .
on a purely technical level, yes they are but really. no.

A glass cock is a picture or link, that just gets posted over and over again - for example, the picture of the golfer woman who was kissing a glass cock like trophy (giggle).

# I'm newish, so ignore me, but..
to me it seems like its only a glass cock if people have seen the pic and don`t want to see it anymore. Woo Yays don`t come under that simply because therres little nicer than being woo yayed (except maybe getting a front page)

I`ll go now....

# I thought....
a glass cock was a pic that starts life on B3ta, gets meme'd around the Internet, and then re-appears on B3ta when some newbie posts it?

if not, what's the technical term for this phenomenon?

# i suppose it comes down to who posts it and where they got it from
If a b3tan makes a pic, posts it to the board, then keeps posting it because they want recognition then it's a timespaz

if it's a pic a b3tan made and it gets posted by lots of different people who get it via email (for example) then it would become a glass cock

So if it's a self promotion thing - then timespaz
anything else - glass cock
That's my interpretation anyway
