« Back to Glossary Index

The internet slang term “Shimmer” refers to a situation or experience that seems too good to be true or suspiciously perfect. It is used to describe things that appear flawless or too incredible to be realistic.

Examples:
1. In online shopping, you may come across a deal that seems like a shimmer. For instance, a brand-new smartphone being sold at an unbelievably low price could be a shimmer, indicating a potential scam or a counterfeit product.
2. Imagine scrolling through social media and seeing a post with an extravagant vacation picture claiming it is a free trip. This advertisement might sound like a shimmer, as it could be a clickbait or a marketing ploy to lure users into something else.
