Back-To-Reality complex

The back-to-reality complex (noun):

Also referred to as the BTR-Complex: the feeling of emptiness after the end of a tv-series or movie, when

1) having to face the fact that all good things come to an end
2) having to let go of the bond that was built with the characters.

Leads in many cases to: addition to fan-fiction, discussion of every episode, and a re-watch of the tv-series/movie.

Durations range from an hour to multiple years.

Frank: "Hey buddy! What's up with Jimmy? He hasn't spoken a word today!"
Dennis: "I know. He just finished the last episode of Freaks and Geeks, and now he's having a Back-To-Reality complex..."
Frank: "Damn... How long do you think this will last?"
Dennis: "He'll get over it pretty soon for now, but after he does a re-watch of the series, it may last a little longer."

reading boy

He has all the brains but no social skills to match. Typically far too obsessed with computers and probably could have taken his a-level further maths in year ten and gotten a B.

He was very nerdy and I suspected that he was a Reading boy.

realitarianism

Religion based on PROVABLE reality. Based on the scientifically proven laws of nature. Based on statistical likiehood.

I avoid certain things, not because of the threat of Hell, or the promise of Heaven, but to avoid prison, bad health, or the risk of serious injury or death. Emotional health and good relationships are also EXTREMELY important. This is Realitarianism.

reality distortion field

It means exactly what it sounds like it means. When Steve says or does something, the very nature of reality is altered.

Steve says that Safari is the best web browser out there? It is.
Steve says that the iPhone gives you the "true internet"? It does.
Steve suggests that you need a bigger brighter screen to watch video on your Nano? You do.
Steve informs you that the ability to create ringtones from music you already own for an additional $.99 is a good deal? It is.

These are not the droids you're looking for.

$599 is a completely reasonable price for a sexy cell phone.
Wait! Now $399 is a completely reasonable price for a sexy cell phone.

You need a new iPod.

The reality distortion field was in full effect at Apple's keynote today.
