A unit of time that varies in length, in direct proportion to how drunk the person who just told you "In a minute" is, i.e. the drunker they are the longer it will be before they get to it.
Ben said he'd be here in a minute, but it's been half an hour. I guess he meant "in a drunk minute."

Get the just a minute mug.The Minute Men are a bunch of douchebags who sit around the U.S.-Mexican border shooting Mexicans who are supposedly stealing their jobs.
Instead of being angry at their greedy, profit hungry bosses who fired them, they just blame Mexicans for their troubles, even though Mexicans didn't steal their job or have any malicious intent. Their bosses are the ones they should really be pissed off at, not Mexicans who, like Americans just want to make a decent living for themselves and their families.

Get the Fifteen Minutes mug.When a mother figure exaggerates the amount of minutes you did or didn't do something. She makes it from the amount of minutes it actually takes and says more, this in itself is it's own antonym. Due to this can be understating or exaggerating something.
Mom: You were supposed to be home 30 minutes ago!
Son: I was supposed to be home ten minutes ago. I don't know why your clock runs on mom minutes.
