Salem’s Lot moment
feeling of elation when you realise you and one other person have resisted a virulent cultural meme that has infected the rest of the local population.
etymology: the 1979 television adaptation of salem’s lot concludes with two characters, ben mears and mark petrie, hiding in a church from the other town inhabitants, all of whom have been transformed into vampires. despite the danger of their predicament there’s a sense of elation that they have resisted the vampire infection.
example of salem’s lot moment: having met the one other person at a party who refuses to dance to commercial r’n’b, you both hide out in the garden. should you fail to find another such person, you may find yourself overwhelmed by the infection, dancing along to beyonce, now one of the d-mned.
