Groundhog Day Disorder

A lightweight sounding but serious mental illness that consumes some people to the point of living for that single day of the year when Punxsutawney Phil emerges from his hidden place; what’s worse is the full picture of obsessive preparation often leading to ruinous financial consequences and severe social isolation that sometimes accompanies this devastating disorder.
Somehow I never suspected that my brother was suffering from Groundhog Day Disorder, but when we found out, it all came together and answered so many previously unanswered questions.

Groundhog day

The same day over and over. Doing the same things repetitively. From the movie of the same name starring Bill Murray.
My life never changes. Every day is groundhog day. Eat, work, sleep.

Groundhog Day

Military person being sent to Iraq, Afghanistan, etc., again-and-again. A term first-used by military personnel for the war in Bosnia...because many had multiple tours-of-duty. Groundhog Day was a term used by former President Clinton to refer to soldiers returning for a tour-of-duty to the same war-zone they've been to in the past.
Oh #$@&! It's Groundhog Day for me; I have to go back to Iraq for another tour-of-duty. Former Vice President Cheney's war sucks!

Groundhog play

The phenomenon where you only ever catch a specific episode of a program on TV or only ever catch a movie on TV from a specific point.
"I was channel surfing last night and I found an old episode of Seinfeld it was the one with the kid in the bubble! Every time I find that show on TV it's THAT episode, it's a total groundhog play."

Groundhog date

A date that is a total replay of previous pointless, forgettable dates.
Hairdresser: How was your blind date?

Samantha: Totally boring. We talked about our work, how many siblings we have, our hobbies. No spark, just superficial chit-chat. It was just like every other lame date I've been on in the past month.

Groundhog Technique

When somebody tells you information about themselves and then forgets they did any such thing. You then use said information to impress them.
"A drunk girl at a bar told me she was a Virgo in some random conversation. I went out for a cig a while later and she followed. She asked me the same set of questions about my 'sign' as she had inside the bar. I said, 'let me guess, you're a virgo'. Her jaw dropped. An hour later I was getting a BJ in her car" - Zenitram
