When someone who has a TiVo or DVR system tries fast-forwarding though live TV out of a habit of viewing recorded programs.
Some may pause during a commercial and try to blow some time so that they may eventually skip through commercials.

when something happens in real life and you think for a instant that you'll just back it up and watch it again.
when a funny,unexpected moment takes place and you miss it, so you think "I'll just tivo it back to see it again!" for instance, your at the park and you bend down right when a great play was made. so you try to Tivo it back to see it again.
I miss what they said and i had a "tivo moment " when i thought i'd just replay what they said.

A time period that lags behind real time; that is created by letting the tivo build up enough to skip commercials.
Jim watches all the Raiders games in a tivo timezone. He turns his phone off to avoid any spoiler alert texts.

John: "Shit! It's supposed to snow in June!?!? Whadafuh?"
Sean: "Naw, that's only in TiVO Land"
John: "Ooooh. Yea."
Sean: "Naw, that's only in TiVO Land"

When a person forgets something they were thinking about (usually a recent thought) and then is able to remember it again by rewinding back through your thoughts to recall the original thought.
"Dude... what was i thinkin about dude, i wanted to say something..."
"Uhhh... dude?"
"Whoa man! i remembered what it was dude, i Thought Tivo'd that!.. I wanted to tell you i think your sister is hot"
"Uhhh... dude?"
