Get the pinwheelmug. When using a Mac and your cursor become an infinitely spinning pinwheel. Often occurring when a programme crashes or when too many applications are opened/being opened at once.
While opening my Adobe software and watching videos online at the same time I was hypnotized by Mac's colourful pinwheel.
I was pinwheeling when I overloaded my Mac with processes.

Get the pinwheelingmug. To mentally freeze in the middle of telling a protracted story, likely as a result of drug use or sleep depravation. The conversational equivalent of the spinning pinwheel icon that appears when an apple computer locks up.
So I was talking to this girl and then, all of a sudden,
pause
thousand yard stare
five minutes later
Where am I? Sorry, just pinwheeled.

Get the pinwheelingmug. Another name for a skinny marijuana cigarette. The same as a pinner. A poor excuse for a joint but if that's all you got then you will make it work and still have a smile on your face.
guy 1: Hey mike pass me that joint before you suck it all down. guy 2: It's all I had so I rolled a pinwheeler. guy 1: It's cool man. Thanks bro.
