Person who watches television while working out at home on a treadmill, on the base of a rating system in which tv shows get labeled as "worth watching from the couch" or "can totally be seen during exercise".
The tv shows belonging to this last category are watched just to keep track of the story while waiting for the occasional good episode that justifies remaining attached to a series that outrunned it's original concept, or for that one-per-episode cool computer graphic effect. They can be followed just fine by listening and looking at the screen every 5 seconds or so. In the case of movies, they usually are cheap B movies often downloaded from the internet or rented by mistake.
The key concept of this activity is multitasking, originating from the fact that:
a) one has not enough couch-time to watch tv from a sitting position
b) one lacks the determination to stay put and watch a now boring show just to see how it ends
c) one wants something to distract him from the pains of fat-burning.

A relationship broakup (or otherwise simply known as a broakup) refers to the ending of a relationship, typically a bromantic one (see: Bromance). A broakup can vary from casual to emotionally traumatic. The cause itself can be related to a degradation of the relationship between bros (rolling back to "friends", or worse, to "acquaintances") or in the most tragic cases, to circumstances bigger than said individuals (i.e marriage, graduation, moving, etc.).
In case of a very abrupt and definitive separation, or when the broakup ends a very profound and intense bromance, the term "brovorce" may be more appropriate (see: Brovorce).

Jim: "Tomorrow Tom will move from our apartment. We shared it for 8 years, and tonight will be the last time we go out to party until there's not a single bar open and come home to drink the last shot before passing out. I feel like shit."
Andrew: "Cheer up, broakups can be bad, but i'm sure you two will still manage to do that every now and then, even if he's going to live 100 miles from you."
