To be delayed by someone or something that interferes with your path of travel at a coincidental time.
Not a single car came by while I waited. As soon as I started backing out of the driveway, I got Truman'd by a funeral procession!

From The Truman Show, where he drives around a cul-de-sac several times with no other cars in sight, and when he tries to leave, cars come out of every side street and block him.

A true man who is too honest and will shut you up with his annoying comments.
"That new kid has been bugging me since morning about my hair. He must be a Truman."

A Truman is a guy who’s only hobbies include, posting sports like a mf, never dating, and probably gay. His last name would most likely be better off as his first name. For example, alex. Ladies, if you are interested in a “Truman” RUN. He would probably like sex with your dad better than sex with you.
Person 1:Yeah, she’s so pretty, but she’s dating a Truman.

Person 2: I thought he came out?
Person 1: HE DID!!

Common name. Can be a moment or a situation. It happens when you get betrayed in a soft way by some of your relatives or friends. It can also happen when, for unforeseen reasons, you find yourself unable to finish what you had to say or do.
"I got a Truman with that girl last night... I waited for her but she never came"

"He has got a Truman as he was explaining why he was sad. A noisy airplane was flying just above him and nobody paid attention to what he was saying"

The koolest name in the world. Typically used to define people that are immense or immeasurable. However, people named Truman are often subject to being the victims of harsh and exceedingly rude biases. Typically have pink as the color of their braces if they have orthodontic work, and are into skinny jeans and punk rock.
Phil: "Did you see that guy over there??"
David: "Dang!! That guy is a hardcore Truman!"
