(1) What is a “Wat”?
It’s more than “What?”, less than “WTF.”
(2) Is being categorised as “Wat” positive or negative?
Depends who’s asking. Just because something makes you stop and look doesn’t mean it’s inherently hideous; however, in some cases, it is. Then again, who can agree on such things — we sure never do.
(3) Where/Why/Who — Wat?
Any amount of time a person spends online, there is a point where you pause to raise an eyebrow. When you spend an unreasonable amount of time online, particularly in the same virtual company, these gestures can graduate to levels in which the eyebrow is paralysed in an upraised state. In order to lessen the strain and preserve our countenences, we — that is, myself (vk) and my friend (Angela) — decided that we needed to narrow our scopes while generating an outlet. Fortunately, when you ask, the internet delivers, and we did what many other self-righteous-introverts do and started a blog.
