Volume Balancing

Usually taking place at night time when one's whole family is asleep, it is the art of watching something on TV, and turning the volume up and down so as not to disturb others, while keeping the volume enjoyable for yourself.

Ben: The explosion scene is coming up! Let me turn down the volume so I don't wake up my mom...

Max: Dude, nice volume balancing!

A few volunteer editors read your definition and decided to not publish it. Don't take it personally!

The email check of shame. When you realize that all hopes and dreams of publishing that one definition on Urban Dictionary that made you die of laughter to yourself while stuck in quarantine are gone, gone, gone.

Phone: *makes email notification sound*
Me: *drops everything and opens email faster than the speed of light*
Email: A few volunteer editors read your definition and decided to not publish it. Don't take it personally!
Me: Well that's just great.

the volume in here is astronomical

When this is said, it refers to lots of voices playing in your head at once. You want them to stop talking as they’re annoying you or simply won’t shut up. Sometimes it can be used to express feelings, if you have a massive crush on someone you’d say the phrase.

Guy: I kind of like you
Girl: *takes a screenshot and sends to a friend* The volume in here is astronomical

OR

Guy: Wait what i thought you said-
Girl: The volume in here is astronomical
