failure to communicate

failure to communicate (n)

Attempting desperately to convey an idea or explain what the hell you're talking about, but to no avail; esp. prevalent between husbands and their wives, or any male and female.

husband: "But it's the Cowboys versus the Redskins Thanksgiving game!"
wife: "..."

This is a prime example of a failure to communicate; absolutely nothing was just conveyed.

Hello?

*Click*

Danielle, Mark is blowing off the party! *cry cry*

Failure to Launch

When you hold your pee in for a long time and when you finally have to use the toilet, you no longer have to pee or only a little bit of urine comes out. This often happens in men's bathrooms when you wait in line for the urinal and when it's time for you to go, nothing...

I had a Failure To Launch at the movie theater when i had to go when watching Avengers Endgame.
