I know I should have been studying for my exam yesterday, but I just couldn’t get round to it and ended up cleaning my kitchen instead. I usually end up procrastiscrubbing at time like this.

snook

I just can't wait any longer. I'm going to have to snook some of the curry even if it isn't ready yet.
Stop snooking and wait for your dinner to finish cooking!

get ILIASed

The anger caused by navigating slow websites that fully reload everytime you click on something. For example, it takes seven full page reloads to log into ILIAS and reach this forum. As a synonym for people outside of KIT, I would coin the term "page reload rage".

stresslaxing

I spent the whole afternoon stresslaxing, lounging on the couch but feeling too guilty about my unfinished tasks to actually relax.

I sat stresslaxing watching a Netflix series all evening to help me chill before my exam. It just made me more nervous.
