Convention-down

Also known as "con-down". The feeling of sadness you get after a convention is over. What type of convention is irrelevant, as long as it is a group of like-minded people that you feel like you belong to.

Can also be used to describe the feeling of loneliness after having spent time with a partner, especially in a long distance relationship.
Person 1: Aww man, I wish that convention lasted longer...
Person 2: Dude, you have convention-down.

Significant other: I had really bad con-down for a week after my girlfriend flew back home. Especially because we won't be able to see each other for two months.

screen time conventions

The phenomenon where until smartphones have been around for sufficiently long periods of time, there are multiple different conventions on how well a child should behave in order to get more screen time. Even though by now, there have been found the following deciding factors on whether someone (children or otherwise) should (be allowed to) have screen time: a) the desired duration of screen time, b) the purpose of having screen time, c) personal susceptibility towards the effect(s) of excessive screen time.
In our household, screen time conventions are strict; we have to consider behavior, purpose, and how long the kids can actually handle it without experiencing brainrot.
