phone paralysis

The complete inability to think or speak that some people get when their phone call is answered by someone other than the person they tried to ring.

They seem so stunned by the fact that someone they called might momentarily be away from their desk, that they had never thought of a way to deal with such an eventuality.
John's colleague: "Hello, John Smith's phone.................Hello?

Caller: "......er, hi.......er........is John not there?...."

John's colleague: "No, he's not about right now, can I take a message or something?"

Caller: "Er....er....yeah, can you ask him to call James at Acme? He's got my number"

John's colleague: "Will do, thanks.........(hangs up).....Jeez that dude had real phone paralysis!

e-phone

The iphone has infiltrated every aspect of society...and so has being, looking or acting "emo." It's only natural that a hyper emotional consumer of culture would be called e-phone. Use it to describe an overtly emotional wreck/wannabee who just doesn't have anything together. You might be feeling e-phone just reading this...it's ok just unnecessarily whine and it should be over soon.

Bands, people and things can be e-phone.
Example 1.)
Jessica: "This party's sick. Wait, look at Sean crying over there...in the corner."

Mark: "Yeah, why is he always sooo e-phone."
Example 2.)

"Look at his outfit....black mascara, side swept dyed hair, blasting to The Spill Canvas on his i-phone. So e-phone
