social narcolepsy

The sudden feeling of sleepiness or exhaustion felt the moment one is invited to a social function or activity, which usually results in avoiding that function or activity;
an excuse of having 'plans early the next day' is typically feigned, albeit poorly.

Person 1: "Hey, it's Saturday! Do you want to get some dinner and see a movie tonight?"

Person 2: "Nah, I'm kinda tired & don't want to be out too late. Plus, I have to get up early for work...on umm,..Monday".

Person 1: "Ah, sounds more like a case of social narcolepsy. (rolls eyes) Whatever."

Ejaculation narcolepsy

When a guy becomes instantly tired and/or falls asleep as soon as his side of the deal is complete and he has ejaculated. This is regardless of length of time or time of day of said session.

"So, how was it with Peter?"

"Oh fine, but he got ejaculation narcolepsy after only 27 seconds so our time was cut short."

Elective Narcolepsy

Falling asleep the exact moment one is asked to exert effort in assistance of others.

Just as I asked my husband to change the baby's dirty diaper, he had an acute attack of elective narcolepsy.

Cinematic Narcolepsy

A mental disorder that prevents the completion of works of cinema, including film and lengthy television or stage play shows, due to a chronic and consistent inability to stay awake until the end of said performances without making an effort.

We decided that we were better served ordering the movie at home when it comes out on streaming because my girlfriend’s cinematic narcolepsy means it may take a few days to finish the movie.
