Telephrenia

The feeling you get while flipping through the television channels, stopping briefly on each one, and hearing logical sentences come out of it.
TV-"This is" (flip) "a great" (flip) "opportunity for this" (flip) "cheese sandwich" (flip) "and President Obama."

Guy1-"Did the tv just make a sentence out of random sound bites from different stations?"

Guy2- "Nah man, you just have a case of Telephrenia!"

Terminatrix Telephobia

A phobia in which the person has a paralyzing fear of answering the phone believing that it may cause him/her to exit The Matrix.

This is one of the more recent phobias that has come to light, with an obvious connection to the Matrix movie trilogy.

In these films people from the real world are able to "jack in" to the Matrix a ficitonal simulated version of Earth as it once was. These people then exit the Matrix via ringing telephones that their "operators" send them to. It can only be assumed that said operators stream a code of some sort into the ringing phone that allows people to break connection with the Matrix.

People with this phobia may also innately be afraid of large underground cave orgies
I don't hangout with James anymore because I can never get him on the phone to make plans. Ever since he saw The Matrix he's been afflicted with Terminatrix Telephobia.

I don't think he likes the idea of a world where Keanu Reeves is seen as the last bastion of hope.

telephones

A plural code name for African Americans. Used in place of the word nigers. Telephones are often very loud, and always seem to be "ringing" or to be overly enthusiastic. This term is most often used so when saying it, African Americans will not know what you are talking about.
Nick: "Yo check out those niggers over there making all that noise."
Joanna: " You meen check out thoses telephones ringing over there."
Sean: " I love telephones!"
