new york minute

A very short unit of time. Analogous to about a day in one of those flat, boring, rural states in the middle of the country.

new york minute

1:The average amount of time it takes for a New Yorker(male) to cum. New Yorkers tend to talk the talk, but cannot walk the walk. This goes for fighting also, bringing us to a second definition. 2: The time it takes to kick the shit out of a New Yorker.
1: Sarah knew that Tony would be done in a New York minute, after she stuck her thumb up his ass.
2: I got in 3 fights in NY, not one of them lasting longer than a New York minute.

New York Minute

A New York minute is an instant. Or as Johnny Carson once said, it's the interval between a Manhattan traffic light turning green and the guy behind you honking his horn.

It appears to have originated in Texas around 1967. It is a reference to the frenzied and hectic pace of New Yorkers' lives. A New Yorker does in an instant what a Texan would take a minute to do.

New York Minute

An imaginary measurement of time that indicates an extreme quickness. Lending itself to the fast-paced lifestyle associated with New York City.
When I was in the Bronx I got mugged, shot, raped, and murdered in a New York Minute. In Detroit it would take at least 2.
