Windows minute

A reference to time where the culculated period bears no connection to the reality of that time span. Used to understate the significance of accurate measurement.

Origin: Microsoft Windows' inability to convey an accurate file download, or transfer, time.

I'll be there in a windows minute.
Translation: I'll be there sooner or later, perhaps.

good minute

Many people think a good minute is as good as a minute, but in fact it is much better. If I tell you that I ain't had no Church's in a good minute, you better believe it's been a couple of months AT LEAST

Bizzlitz Masta: man I ain't had no Church's in a good minute.
Desmond: yea I know man. We ain't got no Church's since the first National Treasure flick hit the newsgroups.

McIlwain Minute

Similar in nature to a Mexican Minute, it indicates a lack of urgency or a tendency to show up at ones own leisure, with little regard for others time.

Nick arranged a game of FIFA to start at 9:35pm, however didn't show up untl 9:50. The length of time that passed before he showed up is a McIlwain Minute.
