hair purgatory

The state of boredom, dislike, or displeasure a person experiences in between periods of changing their hair color, cut, or style. Can be used to describe the uncomfortable "grow-out" wait after a bad haircut, or recovery time after a damaging dye job.

I've been in hair purgatory ever since that stylist butchered my hair cut.

jacket purgatory

When the temp tyre is just cold enough that it needs a jacket, but you become too hot when you put it on. Thus begins the cycles of taking the jacket on and off to remain comfortable

It's cold in here, but not that cold, and I don't want to get stuck in jacket purgatory

turd purgatory

when you feel like you need to take a large dump but cant manage to sqeeze anything out resulting in an abnormally long session in the restroom or an uneasy feeling if you decide to proceed with your day with only pushing out a few tiny pellet size turds...also can decribe when you need to take a huge shit and it gets half way out of your asshole and your butthole is stretched to the furthest diameter possible,nearly tearing your o-ring then stops causing you to breath like a ladie in a lamaze class while trying to muster with the strenght to force it out..which while taking place could feel like an extremely long time in which everthing you think you know comes into question and you question if god really exists.

"sorry I was late,J had to take a huge shit and was caught in turd purgatory.I nearly blew out my o-ring, but im good now.Too much meatloaf with dessert "

Weather purgatory

When the weather is obnoxiously terrible or stagnant for an extended period of time with no change in sight.

Ugh. This weather purgatory in Sydney has been going for almost a year. When will this end?!
