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.

Three-Minute LumberJack

When you "jack" your "wood" (ie. masturbate) with the goal of achieving orgasm within 3 or so minutes due to a time limit.
I had to master the Three-Minute LumberJack while in the gulag because of the 3-minute shower time limit.

I woke up late with morning wood, so did a Three-Minute LumberJack and ran to work. I had a really great day.
