This is the game given to the habit of some people of pausing TV shows or films mid-flow in order to read text that is displayed on screen.
This phenomenon wasn't very common a couple of decades ago, but the ability to pause a TV show or film and retain crystal clear quality has caused the occurrences of this to rise in number. Often the people pausing the screen will pause in the hopes of learning some extra information about what's going on or maybe see some inside jokes. While sometimes they are right, more often than not the information will add nothing to the experience.
Can be very annoying for people who just want to watch the show.

A term used to describe when a person suddenly realises what a mistake probably making by asking "What are you doing?" to themselves as if they'd just walked in to witness themselves acting this way.
Tim: I just had a moment of clarity, you know, I woke up. It's like... you know when you have an orgasm on your own? You know, you're sort of lying on the sofa watching some porn movie you bought on a drunken lonely night in Soho, and you're lying there and everything's going really great, you're getting totally turned on by these absurdly graphic images, everything seems so right, and suddenly - phht! Bingo! You wake up. And you're lying there sweating, desperately looking for the tissue which you know is still in your pocket, and the remote control which is somewhere on the floor, and it's like walking in on yourself, you know? It's just like "What're you doing?" That's how I felt tonight feeling my heart miss a beat everytime the door opened. "What the fuck are you doing?"

A high-risk seduction technique where, on a night out, a person gets themselves invited back to their date's home and quickly strips naked and waits for said date to re-enter in the hope that s/he will either be amused, aroused or sympathetic enough to agree to sleep with the person.
Obviously this technique can backfire spectacularly, and may end with a person being quickly ejected (probably sans clothing). It's suggested that The Naked Man only be used if the date is going badly and there's nothing to lose. Supposedly works two out of three times, but actual results may vary.

Jen: How did your date with Bill go?
Katie: Awful. The movie sucked, the meal was cold and afterwards he said he needed to come to mine for a water and when I left the room to fetch a glass he pulled the Naked Man on me!
Jen: Did you kick him out?
Katie: I should have, but he's not bad looking so I ended up taking him to bed. I mean, it's not like we'll ever see him again anyway.

A phenomenon that occurred over the majority of 2020 where people have grown beards during their time in lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic (either because they wanted to try a new look, couldn't be bothered to shave or a combination of the two).
"I haven't done much during the last few months, just grew a lockdown beard and that's about it.

A term used to describe an instance where a man will attempt to explain something to a woman as if they're talking to a young child. In many cases, what the man is trying to explain is something which the woman already understands... or at least, has a better understanding of than the person who believes it is his duty to school her.
Fiona: Just the other day my boyfriend tried to explain to me the right way to cook and prepare dinner.
Jessica: But... you're a chef!
Fiona: I know, but that didn't matter to him. I had to listen to him mansplaining to me the right way to do it. From a guy who only knows how to nuke ready meals in the microwave.

When a person (the 'Hooker') starts stringing along someone who they know is romantically interested in them, turning them down while still leaving a small possibility of a relationship (with excuses such as "It's a bad time at the moment"). In reality however the Hooker is really waiting for someone more desirable to become available (with the person on the receiving end being the 'Hookee'). The Hooker may also use the Hookee to enjoy some of the benefits of a relationship (such as paying for nights out).
Dave: So, did you ask Jen out?
Marty: Yes, she said she really likes me but isn't looking to date 'at the moment'.
Dave: Aw man, she's got you hooked!
Marty: Yes, she said she really likes me but isn't looking to date 'at the moment'.
Dave: Aw man, she's got you hooked!
