limbo

A state of being stuck between two conflicting situations or age groups, often characterized by a lack of certainty about one's status or responsibilities
In many Moslem families, there must be at least one child (usually an older teen or a young adult) who is stuck in the limbo where he is old enough to drink coffee regularly but still too young to watch movies as inappropriate as Deadpool.

Streaming Hell/Streaming Limbo

When despite all the streaming services you're paying for, that movie or show you're looking for isn't on ANYTHING at all. It is the assumed place these pieces of media rest when they're not available on any streaming service.

Your only option from here is to either pay to rent/buy it or pirate it online.

Friend 2: Aw man, it must be in Streaming Hell/Streaming Limbo!

Text Limbo

That awkward moment when you and your friend start saying something over chat at the same time, but stop in order to see what the other person will say. Silence will ensue.
Fred Larraby: Talking to my friend right now over text.

Krishna Patel: What is he saying?

Fred Larraby: I don't know, he was texting something, then I wanted to say something, but he stopped. Now I'm waiting for him to say something, I guess this is text limbo.

Fred Larraby's Friend: What was he saying!?

Limbo Contact

Somebody on your contact list (either instant messenger, email, or phone) who you no longer communicate with but have no real reason to remove them. Because of this they end up staying on your contact list for far too long.
