call waiting face off

If you're on the phone with someone, and someone else calls, they enter a call waiting face off. The loser obviously being the one you tell you'll call back.

A: "Hey, hold on. I got another call."
B: "'k. (Goddamnit, I'm in a call waiting face off)"
--line-switch--
A: "Sorry about that, I was on the other line."
C: "It's ok. (Fuck... call waiting face off.)"
A: "Hold on a sec, 'k?"
C: "Sure. (SUCK IT, I WIN!)"
--line-switch--
A: "Hey man, I gotta call you back."
B: "Alright, see ya. (Fuck, I lost.)"

Myspace Waiting Period

The three-day period in which you wait before adding someone on myspace who you have just met.

I knew that Christina had a myspace, but i've never met her. I just met her today so I have to wait out the myspace waiting period.

waiting to die

When you drink and watch TV and nothing else with the intention of living in that space between life and death. Like in the documentary film How to Die in Oregon, a terminally ill patient being consulted for assisted suicide said :life has already ended, I'm looking to exit life."

Waiting to die is just that. Life has ended so you spend the rest of your days biding time.

"Why do you get 2, 40s after work every day?" "I'm just waiting to die."

Waiting Room

Waiting Room is the virtual limbo of seemingly never ending hold music you are often sent to when calling a help desk, business, or Government agency. Waiting Room is the act of putting someone immediately on hold as soon as you answer the phone without them realizing anyone picked up. This process takes an experienced and dexterous phone analyst. This practice is most commonly used by receptionists and call center agents. It is used as a way of circumventing or improving 'call in queue' stats or simply as a way of stopping the insecent ringing of one's phone. The best waiting room analysts can put unsuspecting callers in the waiting room without so much as a blip in the hold music.

hey, can you get that call? It's been sitting in queue for like 10 minutes?" "I'm too busy but not to worry I think Sandeep just put it in the waiting room.

The r/writing subreddit Principle

The r/writing subreddit Principle states that if your question starts with the words "Is it ok" or something similar to that then the answer is invariably yes.

"Hello, r/writing. Can I use a particular gimmick or a plot device that has been used before but because I don't actually read books or do any research I just assume it to be a highly original idea?"

"According to the r/writing subreddit Principle, the answer is always yes. You can write whatever you want."

"But is it ok if, like, my main character dies in the end? I'm afraid the average reader will be put off by my creative genius."

"Yes! Stop asking other people for validation! Grow a backbone and write what you want!"
