Pronunciation: brain-framing (like mainframe & aiming with a brain in the beginning)

Sentence: He was brainframing since two hours on verbotomy.com, but nobody voted for his spuntastic words. She was totally brainframed by a mad user looking for the mystical secret hidden in the pixel-cascade of that slow-loading illuminatus-webpage - after brainframing for 23 hours she finally found out that there was a hidden 23px margin between the background of the main-div and the logo-image.

Etymology: The word comes from the Pixelfarmers of the South. They like to hang out and load frame after frame, again and again, into their biological mainframe, into their brain - for hours - since years. Framefarmers... but that's how they are...
