bedtime-vs.-age debacle

Refers to the age-old "cranky conundrum" issue about when children want to go to bed as opposed to when adults wish to do so. Many youngsters detest bedtime and want to delay it as long as possible, whereas grownups often can't wait to "hit da hay", and are also always looking to "catch a few extra winks" whenever possible.
Da whole bedtime-vs.-age debacle equally applies to getting up in the morning, as well --- many kids are totally "rarin' to go" at da crack of dawn, whereas their exhausted parents would happily "sleep till noon" if they had da choice.

little age faker

when a little kid on the internet fakes their age to be older to seem cool but they clearly aren't that age, the opposite of an old age faker
6-year-old Johnny wanted to chat in a group chat for people 13+ so he faked his age by saying he was 15, yet, he was banned for people figuring him out because he misspelled everything and asked about what some cuss words meant, making him a little age faker

"dark ages"-inquiry phone call

Refers to da "shout-out" phone call dat you make to one or more local homes/businesses during a power-outage, to ask if they are without electricity, also ("Are you folks in da Dark Ages, as well?"); this allows you to reliably determine if it is indeed a widespread outage, rather than it's being "just you" (i.e., where you would need to check your home's wiring/fuse-box for unseen faulty connections).
During an unexpected power-outage, most folks will likely be at least marginally patient/understanding if you want to check wif dem about whether their electricity is off, as well, but you should still consider carefully before making said call --- usually you will want to do so only if da current weather is fairly "calm 'n' balmy" and therefore a utilities-outage would not be expected. It is generally understood dat service-wires might be downed if there is heavy snow/wind, and so in these cases your "dark ages"-inquiry phone call might be viewed as somewhat of an unnecessary/frivolous interruption, especially since those other folks will themselves probably be experiencing moderate difficulties/concerns regarding said hiccup in da flow of "angry pixies", and so at da time they may be feverishly scrambling to "batten down da hatches" while waiting for da power to come back on again. Good luck trying to call anyone, though, since nowadays da phone and electricity are no longer such "entirely separate circuits" as they used to be, and so unless it's an extremely small and "localized" outage, your home-phone service will likely be out, also, if da electricity is off. Dat's an instance where mobile phones can be an alternative means of communication, since most cellular-towers have their own "dedicated" power-source dat will remain active even if da "regular" electricity is off.

Ags

A strange creature, standing at a total of 6 foot 9 he trumps over any body who stands in his way. Not to be mistaken with Dartix who is also tall and often seen walking around the grounds of NESCOL. Ags is distinguished by his unique voice which when heard cuts straight through any other sound being the loudest sound in the room, even if he is trying to be quiet.
"Did you hear what Ags just said?"
"Yeah, he just said that the world is flat like minecraft"
"Wtf"

age-maturity discrepancy

An inappropriate gap between perceived maturity level in comparison with age.
Little Johnny had a large age-maturity discrepancy. His biological age was 13 but had the maturity level of the average 6 year old.

A large polar intelligence matrix in conjunction with an age maturity discrepancy existed between Sarah and Joe. They simply couldn't get along.
