Hastience 

hey-shuhnce
noun

1. A reverse dichotomy of the words haste and patience.
2. The act of being hastient.
3. Of or related to the act of outwardly expressing patience whilst suppressing internal feelings of haste.

Not to be confused with Hatians -- nationals of the country of Haiti, or Haisans -- Asians living in Haiti, Hastience is a human quality and trait expressed by many individuals on a day to day basis within the queued, monotonous, institutional, repetitious, cyclical, unfulfilling construct of society colloquially known as "modernity."
Joe expressed astounding hastience as he waited to be anally probed by the TSA agents on his flight to Chicago so as not to be perceived as anxious or threatening lest he get full-on fisted.

Barry hastiently awaited for his girlfriend to be done with her period so that he could properly get his rocks off without sacrificing hygiene or fidelity.

A Haitian is a person born in Haiti or has either a Haitian mother or Haitian father but were born outside of Haiti. Haitians come from a strong, rich, warm, polite, complex Latin American culture. Ethnically the majority Haitians are predominantly of African decent. However millions of Haitians are a mixture of African,Spanish,British,French, Arab,German,Indian,Chinese, Jewish, Polish and Italian. And they come in all skin tones and colors. Most Haitians speak Haitian Creole (Kréyol) which is a beautiful language based from a mixture of French, Spanish, Portuguese, English, and a tiny bit african influences. Majority of Haitians are strict practicing Catholics. Only poor Haitians practice voodoo. Haitian cuisine is unique and extremely delicious made up of a typical caribbean/ latin american diet of plantains, rices, beans, seafood, meats, soups, vegetables, pastries, tropical fruits, coffee, teas, and rum but with intense mouth watering creole flavor and spice with a french culinary sophistication.Haitians dance and musics called Kompa which is exactly like Dominican merengue but much more elegant, romantic , and slow with a slow salsa-ish tempo. In America Haitian's and Haitian diaspora are one of the most educated, successful, professional minorities consisting of a large population of doctors, nurses, lawyers, engineers, entrepreneurs, business men, professional athlete's , actors, singers, fashion designers, and philanthropist.
People: You are Haitian? You don't look Haitian. I thought you were.......
Haitian: Yes, I am Haitian and we dont look like anything specific.

People: All Haitians do voodoo
Haitian: That is a lie but can I slap you now or later?
