Writer's Block

When your brain gears just stop and no matter how hard you try you cannot feasibly come up with two words to type on your computer screen that make sense together and therefore cannot finish your epic novel about the quest to slay a dragon er whatever and every thought about the book that crosses your mind is immediately pushed back with "That would sound like f*ing s*t if I put that in words" and absolutely no inspiration can even enter your mind anymore and the end of your google doc is just stuck with the hero at his girlfriend's house crying on her floor for his missing brother and essentially, you feel like your brain is just a puddle of s*t.

Writer's Block

An imaginary non-existant concept designed to help writers feel less guilty when they lack the mental capacity to write well for a certain time period. The real reason for this temporary lack of creativity is usually one of the following: distraction, health problems, lack of focus, laziness, or sometimes just the basic idea of writer's block can scare a writer into actually getting it.
Friend: Dude, your eyes are red, your hair is messy, the vain in your neck is throbbing and youve got that nervous twitch again!

Writer's Block

A condition in which a writer or author cannot feasibly type words onto their computer and every last drop of inspiration soup has been drank and nothing is coming to mind that would make sense or not sound like bulls* and all your friends are expecting you to finish chapter 13 and wondering weather or not billy the fantastic will make his way out of the cave or be stuck there forever.

Also known as "Ihatemyself" syndrome that can also cause yourself to bang your head repeatedly into your keyboard and hoping any of the blood spilled on the letters will bring something into your head to replace said blood and allow you to continue your story.
"Bob: Is Jeff finishing that book?
Jane: No, he told me he has Writer's Block."
