| 1. | Hercules Moment | ||
|
Occurs during a shouted conversation in a loud, crowded space. An embarrassing word or phrase is shouted when everyone else in the room suddenly goes quiet.
Originated in a classroom when a comment was made about a PlayStation game. This has now spread throughout the vernacular of school children in Aberdeen, Scotland. Eoin (in a loud room): Do you remember the PS1?
Duncan: Yeah, it was great! (Room suddenly becomes silent) Eoin: Hercules was the best PS1 game ever! Everyone else in room: What?! Hahahaha! Duncan: Hercules moment! Waaaaaaay! |
