Synchronic Event

Synchronic Event /sɪnˈkrɒnɪk ɪˈvɛnt/
Noun phrase

A Synchronic Event is a classification for a sequence or series of synchronicities that have occurred with enough frequency or significance to warrant focused study, interpretation, or action. Unlike "synchronicity," which denotes the observation of meaningfully related but non-causal events, "Synchronic Event" represents the singularity of these events as a collective entity, implying a heightened level of recognition and intention to understand or engage with them.

Etymology:
The term "Synchronic Event" combines "synchronic," which is derived from "synchronicity," with "event." This pairing creates a novel concept that extends beyond mere observation of coincidental or meaningfully related events. Instead, it moves toward intentional recognition and focused study or analysis of such occurrences when they form a pattern or sequence that warrants further attention.

Usage:
In academic contexts, especially within the realms of psychology, sociology, and philosophy, a Synchronic Event refers to a specifically identified series of non-causal but meaningfully connected occurrences that prompt further investigation or action.
The repeated co-occurrence of a rare bird species and a local festival, over multiple years, led naturalists to label it a Synchronic Event, sparking new conservation initiatives.

Event Horizon

The original definition is:
"The gravitational sphere of a black hole within which even light cannot escape"
-Wikipedia

However, recently, a new definition has risen meaning something completely different:
The Event Horizion is the point at which a person is too drunk or stoned to be able to function properly, yet alone remember anything the next day.
Example:

Dude 1: *takes-drag-from-J*
Dude 2: "Oh shit, you don't look so well..."
Dude 1: *falls-off-chair,-blissfully-passes-out*
Dude 2: "Damn that lucky bastard, he just passed the Event Horizon!"
