Resting gif-face

The loop your face makes when you’re listening but not very interested, I.E., An eye roll, nod, deep sigh, or nom-sincere smile. Sometimes unintentional, but can be done deliberately for effect.

Usually under two seconds long, and usually sarcastic or born out of sheer boredom and a desire to be polite when you’d rather be anywhere else. Also used as profile pictures on popular internet sites.
(At a dinner party, trying to tell a story)

*The person adjacent to you, nodding and smiling over and over again*
“I was trying to tell you about this, but you’re just using a resting gif-face with me”

Alternatively, “Yeah, I don’t really care about their story, so I blanked and used my resting gif-face.

Or, “Man I rewatched that video I was in, I totally had a resting gif-face”

Future-rest

Future rest is a term most notably used in the Army for any amount of time consumed by an individual to rest, relax or sleep prior to an event that will cause you to tire i.e work details, guard or missions. Similar to a nap, it differs only in that future-rest is taken when previous knowledge of a future work related event is known.

The rest is just paperwork

'The rest is just paperwork' is a phrase that gained popularity in Poland in the early '90s. Though many argue over its origins, it's believed to have stemmed from the cypherpunk movement in Poland.

The expression was used as a way to defer questions and finish an uncomfortable discussion with as much ease (and class) as possible.
"There are a few technical things that must be fixed. The rest is just paperwork."
