phantom im 

When someone you're talking to over AIM types something for a while, then backspaces it and doesn't send it, and you only knew they were about to say something because your IM client shows when they're typing something?

The backspaced IM is a "phantom im". It often really is something better left unsaid.
Sometimes confused with "typing something meant for someone else in the wrong window".

"I asked Mike what his phantom im was, but it was something I wish I hadn't asked about."

Danny Phantom Impression

When you're on talking terms with someone and they randomly ghost you.

Guy 1: Hey, you still talking to Chelsea?
Guy 2: Nah, she decided to do her Danny Phantom Impression
Guy 1: Oh man, that sucks. Isn't this like the third time this month?
Guy 2: Yea, it's been exhausting tbh.

The Pantomime Factor 

The Pantomime Factor is a device used by writers of film and TV dramas that has the audience shouting at the screen, when what the hero or heroine is about to do, defies imagination and logic.

An example of The Pantomime Factor.

The heroine on a dark night walks alone into her unlit house which clearly has had a forced entry and fails to see a figure lurking in the dark as they stumble about, never even thinking about turning on a light.
More impressionable observers will be shouting; "Look out behind you!" and similar warnings at the screen, but of course to no avail.

Pantomime

1. To act out in a very over the top way.

2. A truly mad old English tradition still performed today of rampant cross dressing and Carry On style humour performed on stage primarily for kids.

Extremely popular at Christmas and always traditionally contains the phrase 'It's behind you!' no matter what the production. Also the place where z-list celebs earn their keep.

Completely hatstand! All Americans should catch one when in Blighty, as it will pop their heads!

1. God this is getting to be a right pantomime.

2. I wonder which long forgotten reality TV show 'celebrity' will be the pantomime dame in our production of Cinderella?

pantomime

A British form of comic theatre for a family audience. Typically features a number of stock characters, such as the dame, an exagerrated female character played by a man in drag; and the principal boy, usually the title character, played by a woman.

Pantomimes, also known as pantos, are usually based on classic fairy tales or children's stories, such as Snow White, Cinderella, Dick Whittington and Jack and the Beanstalk.

The audience is expected to get involved, by shouting "He's behind you", "Oh, no it isn't", "Oh, yes it is", etc, or booing and hissing the main villian.

Did you know Ian McKellen is staring in a pantomime this year?
