When you get used to playing one type of game then switch to another but your brain is still thinking in terms of the first.

When you are fighting with someone over AIM or Facebook Chat and in the time it takes you to type your response they have typed something else, and you send it after that topic has died.

The little time that seperates what you do online from what others do. This usually split-second time difference can seriously deduct from online gaming skill.
Example 1:
Guy1:*Gets sniped right as he released a shot at the other sniper, universal lag making it so he never really shot due to the fact that he shot at the last second, the server not taking notice of it due to universal lag* DAMN UNIVERSAL LAG!!
Example 2:
Guy1's screen:
Guy1: I love you.
Girl1: You never say you love me, I'm leaving you.
Girl1's screen:
Girl1: You never say you love me, I'm leaving you.
Guy1: I love you.
Guy1:*Gets sniped right as he released a shot at the other sniper, universal lag making it so he never really shot due to the fact that he shot at the last second, the server not taking notice of it due to universal lag* DAMN UNIVERSAL LAG!!
Example 2:
Guy1's screen:
Guy1: I love you.
Girl1: You never say you love me, I'm leaving you.
Girl1's screen:
Girl1: You never say you love me, I'm leaving you.
Guy1: I love you.

When you're in a game and get blocked from moving a certain way by lag. So, running one way in a game and it suddenly stops you before the lag calms down and let's you run again.
