Quarter-Day Quinten is an extension of the Half-Day Harry. Its uses are for when people are not turning up to work/school/anything for any reason, including sickness, laziness, etc.
When calling someone a Harry, they can be anywhere from 5 mins to half a day late.
Quinten on the other hand is significantly less, i.e. only turning up for a couple of hours.
It can also be modified to Quarter-Week Quinten for someone who is only turning up for part of the week.

The diet pepsi of chronological crises. Striking at the 25-35yo demographic, who've realised that:
A) Those dreams of happiness that sustained them through high school and college will always remain fantasy no matter how much they earn OR
B) Their job at the local McDonalds isn't proving a satisfying career choice and maybe they shouldn't have slept through remedial maths.
Either way, common symptoms include a renewed passion for the pop music of their youth, dusting off the skateboard and considering "going pro", and the dating of underage skanks from the local high school to prove they still got it.

The best bloody burger ever made. You can buy it from McDonalds. At the bottom is bread, then cheese, then beef, more cheese, more beef, more cheese, pickles, onions, tomato sauce, mustard and then bread. Just reading this should make your mouth water.
Bob: Can i have a medium double quarter pounder meal with a coke as the drink ?
McDonald's Employee: Sure, that comes to $8.45
Bob: Thanks mate

A silly drunken fat girl who uses her small percentage of Asian decent to try to make herself seem cultured, special, and "hott."
She also cannot spell, holds grudges for years, and will try to make your life seem worse than hers.

1.) A time shortly after winter break (especially in the middle of third quarter) in which teachers realize they have done nothing productive the past semester and begin to cram to make up for lost time in the curriculum. This is a period of high stress and fatigue as now the victimized students have been slammed with double workload and have more homework and studying to do than ever.
2.) The effects of being under constant pressure and stress from heavy schoolwork. This may be anything from falling asleep in the middle of the hallway because you haven't slept in 36 hours to losing 6 pounds because of not eating, both because you haven't had time to do either.
(Note: the term is merely named for when it is most likely to occur, but can pertain to any period of being overworked and overstressed.)

Example 1
Elle: Uggghhh! I've got third quarter syndrome, and I've got it bad.
Ari: Me too. What are your symptoms?
Elle: Well, I can't use any rare pocket of free time I have on anything but sleep.
Ari: What do you mean?
Elle:....I fell asleep in the middle of Kohl's yesterday.
Example 2
Fenton: Hey bro, you want to hang out this weekend?
Robbie: Dude. You know I have AP classes and it's past winter break. I don't have time, I've got two chapter reviews, two book reports, an essay, and a five minute speech. Worst third quarter syndrome ever!
Fenton: Alright, alright, chill out!
Robbie: *Combusts*
Example 3:
Amanda: Are you taking Ms. Hanson's class this year?
Jamie: Yeah, it's a lot of work. I'm starting to work up a case of third quarter syndrome
Amanda: Seriously! We're in the middle of the first semester, but I feel like we're having third quarter daily!
