Phantom flavor

When you drink a lot of one kind of alcohol, then the next day you suddenly taste that alcohol again in your mouth all at once for no reason. Only lasts a few moments, but the memory can be painful. Often occurs in conjunction with a hangover.
I was sitting at my computer all day after playing Edward 40-hands and I suddenly got phantom flavor of malt liquor. Made me want to die.

Phantom internet

This occurs when your preferred DNS server stops responding, or is no longer available, presumably due to your router.
When you already have a connection with another server/computer during this event, it is called "phantom internet", or internet remaining that might soon fade away due to packet loss or new requests, since new requests (usually) attempt to resolve a hostname from the unavailable DNS. Similar to phantom pain.

Person 1: Luckily I had some phantom internet to finish my ongoing match!
