zeroth world problem

Problems caused by adopting bleeding edge technology for common, daily use before it's reliable, such that the technology's imperfections complicate your life. Loosely, problems that most people living in a wealthy, industrialized nation would probably roll their eyes at.

"So anyway, my Twitch stream went down during my peak viewing hours because the beta drivers for my graphics card apparently break the HDCP chain-of-trust, so the video capture software thought I was stealing copyrighted content from myself, and..."
"Man, every week you have one of these stories. You're like a glutton for zeroth world problems."

zeroth impression 

The impression that you get from someone before you actually meet them, including impressions made by clothes, style, and rumors.

veselekov's zeroth law 

A scientific law explicitly stating that all members of the female race shall be unable to be sexually attracted to any man who has full autonomous control of their eyebrows. This does not hold true for any relationship that remains at a platonic level, such as friendships, or even jogging buddies. Predates his first law of gas, grass, or ass: no one rides for free

Player 1: Man, that dude's eyebrows are going everywhere! he's even doing the wave!

Player 2: He probably suffers from veselekov's zeroth law

Zerophiliac 

Any person with Zerophilia, the rare genetic condition affecting those who possess an extra "Z" chromosome in addition to the standard gender-determining X and Y chromosomes. Following their first experience of sexual intercourse, Zerophiliacs may change gender whenever they are sexually aroused. The International Organization of Zerophiliacs provides testing services and resources for those with Zerophilia.

When she noticed her boyfriend, Jake's, penis occasionally disappeared, Mary submitted his hair for testing to The International Organization of Zerophiliacs and confirmed her hopes: Jake is a Zerophiliac.
