Unity dream syndrome
The phenomenon when a game developer uses Unity for most of his waking hours, hence his brain is predisposed to mainly think about Unity (regardless whether or not he attempts / is supposed to think about this)
Ever since I started my new game project, I’ve been hit with Unity dream syndrome—now I can’t stop dreaming about coding in Unity, even when I’m supposed to be sleeping! It must be because I’ve spent so many hours in the editor that now my brain automatically thinks about game mechanics when I close my eyes!

Pleistocene
Pleistocene is the geological epoch that lasted from c. 2.58 million to 11,700 years ago, spanning the Earth's most recent period of repeated glaciations. However, the name of this era somehow sounds too similar to PlayStation. Hence, this era ends up colloquially.
When my friend mentioned the Pleistocene, I couldn't help but chuckle because it sounds so much like PlayStation—imagine a gaming console from the Ice Age!
