burning daylight

Wasting time, hesitating when something should be done quickly. Literally, letting the day go by while you are waiting to get started.
Better get back on the road- we're burning daylight and we have a long way to go still.

Dead by Daylight

An online asymmetrical survival horror game released in June 2016.

In Dead by Daylight, each trial has one Killer and four Survivors, never more, never less.

The Killers must protect the Generators from being powered and sacrifice the Survivors to an unknown being called the Entity, using several sacrificial hooks around the map. The Killers have specific powers that can aid them in their quest. For example, the Trapper can place bear traps around the map in any location to cripple Survivors, apply pressure to areas and shorten chases. There can only be one Killer in each trial.

The survivors must attempt to survive the wrath of the Killers. The simplest way to escape the trial is activating five Generators around the map and exiting through two Exit Gates. The Survivors have defenses such as pallets that they can use to slow down or even stun the Killer, and windows to put distance between them and the Killer.

Both the Killers and Survivors have their own set of perks, some unique to one Killer/Survivor which can be "taught" to other Killers and Survivors alike upon reaching character levels 30, 35 and 40. Survivors also have items such as medkits and flashlights, and addons which can either prolong, quicken or upgrade said items. Killers also have addons that can upgrade their power in similar ways. These all aid the player in their objective.

burning daylight

A film industry slang term. Used as a way to tell actors and crew to hurry up as natural daylight wanes. Since the sun's position and quality changes throughout the day, sunlit shoots can be challenging to match later in editing, so it's important to get scenes done efficiently. This phrase is often used jokingly indoors to spur on the film crew.

deadlights

1. what pennywise the clown actually is. it is an orange light that mesmorizes those that are afraid. when mesmerized, IT can feed. IT wakes up every thirty years and IT feeds. It is what is behind the clown. Like Stan Uris said "I saw what was behind the clown."

2. depression
