That infernal black hole of time and miscommunication in hospitals. If the doctor tells you a certain time they really mean it could happen within a twenty-four hour time bracket, and they won't tell you if anything changes.
Kim: I thought you said the procedure would be yesterday at five Dr: Yeah but I really meant today.
Kim: Oh great we're on hospital time
A children's TV show that originally premiered on PBS from 1989-1993, with Thomas the Tank Engine stories coupled with segments involving real-life actors. It was actually a very funny and well-done show for its time. Both George Carlin and Ringo Starr were even separately featured on the show as well, each playing train conductors.
As of this entry, reruns of the show can now be seen on the Disney Channel.
Shining Time Station was one of the most unique shows in the 90's, combining model animation with real-life actors. (It's also the only way you can see a family-friendly George Carlin.)
"You're on tortuga time. Welcome to the suck"
An unavoidable phenomenon that prevents you from arriving at your destination on time. There is no stopping it and can only be accepted - it's going to happen. Even if you attempt to leave earlier, some greater force prevents you from being on time. Just accept the inevitable, you're on Tortuga Time.
Colombian time is a different perception of being on time that Colombian people have. It's an extrabuffer of about 30 minutes from the original time they agreed on.
My friend agreed to meet with me at 4:15 for running but arrived 20 minutes later. He said he arrive on Colombian time.
