That moment where you're still stopped at a green light to wait for any assholes who run the red light to clear the intersection and/or could potentially hit you
I had to take a stupidity pause today at a green light because I thought some dickhole was going to run the red light

Get the Pause the moviemug. This is the game given to the habit of some people of pausing TV shows or films mid-flow in order to read text that is displayed on screen.
This phenomenon wasn't very common a couple of decades ago, but the ability to pause a TV show or film and retain crystal clear quality has caused the occurrences of this to rise in number. Often the people pausing the screen will pause in the hopes of learning some extra information about what's going on or maybe see some inside jokes. While sometimes they are right, more often than not the information will add nothing to the experience.
Can be very annoying for people who just want to watch the show.

Get the Pause the gamemug. Refers to how large hairy hominids are often wary and shy when trying out new things, and so they tend to hesitate and ponder all possible options before proceeding.
The great apes are naturally unfamiliar with human customs of interaction, so don't be offended or disappointed if a giant simian displays a "gorilla pause" before holding out its "gorilla paws" in greeting.

The viewer is invited to imagine a low-res video of the State of the European Union (SOTEU) address, paused during a crowd shot. "Look at the Pause-Job on Angela Merkel, has she suffered a stroke!?"

Get the Pause-Jobmug. A syndrome whose primary symptom is never hitting the pause button (especially if one is texting while videogaming/watching tv). It is typically acquired through.
1. Excessive online multiplayer gaming.
2. TiVO/DVR deficiency
Effects of this syndrome include
1. Virtual decapitation by zombie teeth.
2. Getting beat to a pulp by Joker's henchmen or Goombas.
3. Missing the most dramatic moment of the Thursday episode of Days of Our Lives.
4. Constantly annoying friends by asking them to find their favorite shows online despite them not being available for public streaming on the TV channel's website yet as they aired less than 48 hours ago (this effect may not occur if the patient is somewhat internet savvy).
A Treatment plan includes:
1. Having others yell at the patient for having the syndrome, while hitting the pause button when needed, if possible.
2. Cancelling the patient's Xbox Live or WoW (World of Warcraft) Subscription.
3. Getting the patient a DVR.
4. Fixing the patient's pause button if it is broken.
5. Cancelling the patient's cell service so they'll stop wasting their lives texting, while wasting their lives watching TV or playing video games...

My brother has a horrible case of No Pause Syndrome from playing too much Borderlands. I can't count how many times I've seem him get turned into swiss cheese while playing games due to that.
My friends are constantly missing parts of episodes of Jersey Shore as they don't have a DVR. I'm sick of them asking me to find them their shows on veevr and what not.
