flashback

When a movie or TV program suspends the current events to let the viewers see something that happened in a character's past. Depending on what you're watching, flashbacks are done either to build character/plot or they are simply a way to make a joke out of past events.

"Family Guy is famous for it's random flashbacks"

"Flashbacks are the third deadliest killer in animes; most of time someone dies, it's during a flashback."

Chocolate Flashback

This is when a transsexual prostitute really needs to take a dump and she squats by a tree in a prime touristic location (e.g. l'Arc de Triumphe in Paris) and unloads a monster shit whilst smiling and smoking a cigarette, and doesn’t wipe or wash her hands after.

Person 1: WTF???!!! (calls friend)

Person 2: (answers the phone) whats up champ?
Person 1: T-bone, look out the window, theres a real chocolate flashback taking place!!
Person 2: Scrumptious!!!

text flashback

When a text message reminds you of something you didn't remember doing; either because you were too wasted, too tired, or you simply weren't there in the first place (see text faux flashback).

*via text message*

Samantha: OMG stud! U kept me up all night last night! I'm sooo tired today!!!

Dave: Who is this?

Samantha: Fuck off Phil

Dave: This isnt Phil, u whore

Samantha: LOL I was totally joking

Dave: I'm sure u were. This would have been the best text flashback of all time... if it wasn't a text faux flashback
