Stand-me-still

If you are talking to multiple people on AIM and just out of coincidence, nobody responds for a short period of time.

Person A is talking to B and C. A types a message to B and then types a message to C, but neither respond right away.

and so, it's a stand-me-still.

One game stand

When you have so much fun with someone you as them to your friends list. Then a few months later you look at your list and go "who the hell is this?"
This is not to be confused with a one night stand.

SnIpEr_4_lYfE_420 and I had fun last night, it may be a one game stand though.
