regretiniscence

The mixture of feelings of bitterness, sadness and regret when you realize a song lyric, scene from a movie, or some other kitschy moment is indeliably etched into your memory, wasting those brain cells for more deserving works.

I just heard Elton John's "Ticking" for the first time in probably twenty-five years and I recited every lyric, what a terrible regretiniscence.

24-quinox

The one episode per season where the ticking clock of "24" is synchronized with real time.

Guy: "Whoa, the episode ended at 10PM and the clock onscreen said 10PM."
Guy #2: "It's the 24-quinox."
