Download Anxiety 

1: The anxiety felt when downloading something within a set time limit. Anxiety increases according to the formula

ANXIETY=(DOWNLOAD REMAINING)/(TIME REMAINING).

2: The fear of a download failing, especially for very large downloads. In this case, anxiety increases the closer a download is to completion.

Symptoms of download anxiety include: Uncontrollable monitoring of the download; Refraining from doing anything else on the computer for fear of interrupting the download; Inability to concentrate on anything not related to downloading; and other more general anxiety symptoms.

1: My class finished at 6:30, but I was trying to download Rocky Balboa. It was real download anxiety time.

2: Person 1) My movie was almost finished downloading, and I couldn't keep my eyes off the progress bar. My heart was racing at a mile a minute.
Person 2) Sounds like you had some serious download anxiety.

A stub in the dark 

When walking somewhere you often walk in the dark, you stub your toe on something which is not usually there, or was only recently put there.

I had a stub in the dark last night, when I got up to go to the toilet and stubbed my toe on the coffee table which my girlfriend had moved earlier that the day.

Achilles Toe 

A sore toe, generally an ingrown toenail, which is a huge weakness to the owner. In any fight, if someone steps on your Achilles Toe, you've lost.

I had A stub in the dark last night, so now I can't let anyone know about my Achilles Toe.
