Rosie minute

A unit used when measuring time, deceivingly longer than an actual minute. Used to trick people into believing something will end shortly (ie. a minute) in order to get you to complete a task, yet often takes 2-3 times longer.
Bruce: I was ploughing away for ages so I asked her if she was about to come, and she said 'in a minute.'
Sean: How much longer did it take?
Bruce: About two more Taylor Swift songs.
Sean: More like a Rosie minute then.

eight minutes of ross

A drinking game centered around the contemporary classic sitcom Friends.

Participants are recommend to use a lower-percentage drink (i.e. lager or cider), and while watching an episode of Friends, each participant must continuously swig their drink (chug) while Ross is on screen. The game lasts for the first eight minutes of the episode, hence "Eight Minutes of Ross."

Participants must drink regardless of how much of Ross is on screen. Even if just his elbow or the top of his head is on screen, participants must drink.
A: Do you know any drinking games?

B: Erm, do you know Eight Minutes of Ross?

A: I love Eight Minutes of Ross, I couldn't stand up the last time I played that!

Hym "And all it took me was 50mg of Adderall and 15-30 minutes of consideration in regards to what you would have to do to make AI. And I'm not going to pretend that didn't happen for the rest of my life so the FORM THAT THAT 'NOT PRETENDING' is going to take is going to be 1 OF 2 THINGS... And ONLY 1 of those 2 things."
