Pandemic Brain 

A phrase used to describe the phenomenon caused by the quarantine and isolation measures put in place for COVID-19. When someone starts saying weird or out of character shit, doing out-of-pocket unnecessary things or regressing to things they used to like when they were younger during a pandemic, they are probably suffering from Pandemic Brain.
A: My older brother is really stressed out from isolating, he started blasting mr. brightside by the killers last night for no reason. We're not in 2007 anymore!
B: Ah...sounds like he's got the pandemic brain

Pandemic Standard Time 

The time zone everyone on Earth is on due to the pandemic. All of time seems to be mushed and nobody can remember the day.
Two friends texting in late 2020:
Friend 1: "Omg I just thought it was Tuesday."
Friend 2: "It is Tuesday!"

Friend 1: "OMG haha wow. See I got confused cause I had two similar events today and yesterday."
Friend 2: "You must be stuck in Pandemic Standard Time"

Pandemic Boyfriend 

A guy you are seriously dating during a pandemic, but do not plan to have a longterm relationship with post-pandemic.
My pandemic boyfriend IS my social bubble.

We get along really well, but he's got kind of an anger issue. Still, I don't know how I'd get through this quarantine without pandemic boyfriend.

Pandemic fine
