A virus which seems to affect mainly second semester seniors, with few eceptions (First semester Seniors etc). This virus can be deadly to ones grades, as the carrier becomes totally apathetic about their grades, classes, homework etc. This results in many Zeros ( 0 ) or failing grades - ultimately leading to the drastic lowering of the grade in the carriers classes. Side effects include: Failure to give a shit, complete and utter apathy, and not graduating with the carriers class.

A common disease which plagues high school seniors at one point during their last year in high school. Before they graduate, they are overcome with a lazy and indifferent attitude; uncaring of their studies. There are many different causes of the disease, but it can often be contagious between close friends. Often results in a change in personal style; from anything beforehand to sweats and baggy shirts. Hair is barely ever brushed; or for women, is up in a messy bun or ponytail. They might have many absences and a generally dismissive outlook towards any type of labor whatsoever.

The feeling you get when you have a college acceptance letter in one hand, a Cinnabon in the other hand, and you jack it with both hands and skeet all over your bookbag and homework.

Of course, you dont have the motivation to clean off your stuff anytime between 3 PM and 7 AM the next day.

Senioritis is a disease that affects all high school seniors. For most people it starts in the second semester of the senior year. Symptoms for the disease include: Unsafe sex, many beer bongs, getting arrested, showing up to school extremely high, drawing a five foot penis on the chalkboard, and telling you teacher she looks like an old crack whore. The only way to get over this disease is to walk the stage at graduation, or punch your principal in the cock.
