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.

joe-minute

A unit of time that is stretched and is usually more like 75 or 80 seconds because some people like to under-estimate time to make you do stuff for longer.

"Dude! That was a joe-minute! You need a new watch!"

And if you have a minute why don’t we go…

Lyrics from the greatest song ever created, I’m not talking about the John Lewis version, but the original. On second thought, probably not the greatest song but in the top 3005.

"And if you have a minute why don’t we go…" sang the world as time paused in the aftermath of a new dawn

Minute

A way of saying a long time has passed, especially when you feel a bit embarrassed it’s been so long, because deep down you know you should have done it sooner.

“When’s the last time you worked out?”

“It’s been a minute.”

Aussie 3-Minute Miracle

When you get licked down under.

Mate, we were having sex, and then she gave me the Aussie 3-minute miracle.

What’s that?

She licked me down under.
