Emotional inertia

When something is so emotionally overwhelming that it paralyzes you (emotionally) as though the rest of the world is speeding along and you are frozen. This eventually leads to an emotionally slamming of your mind into the proverbial dashboard of life.

When I saw my beloved husband of 32 years naked in our jacuzzi with that 20 year old, I experienced a horrible emotional inertia. When I regained my senses a week later, I ran over him six times with my Hummer.

waved him off

A name for a hand gesture you do to someone when you want them to do your bidding and/or change their mind for them. It is a reference to the Jedi mindtrick seen in the Star Wars movie where the Jedi says "these are not the droids you are looking for" and gestures and the bad guys reply "these are not the droids we are looking for and walk away. They really were the droids they were looking for.

Tina: "How did you get Max to work for you again so you could get a couple weeks off?"
Jeff: "I waved him off with the old Jedi mind control. It was easy."

voice immunity

After a period of time together, couples become "immune" to each others voices.

After seven years of marriage, John developed voice immunity to Janet.

"John?"
"Hey John?"
"Johnnnnnn?
