temporary set-up

When you break something and you don't want anyone to know it was you, so you temporarily set it up so that it looks unbroken. This way, when the next person touches it, they're under the impression that they broke it, thus setting them up.

Alyssa: So I accidentally pulled out the rubber thing that goes around the inside of the door on Evan's car, and I couldn't fix it.

Jenna: Oh? Was he pissed?

Alyssa: Well, he wasn't paying attention, and I knew Jerry was going to be getting in any second, so I did a temporary set-up and just kinda shoved it back in. Then when Jerry got in, it fell again and Evan flipped his shit at Jerry.

Jenna: Nice.

Temporacle

The secondary antagonist of the sonic fangame Sonic Hysteria. He was sealed away in the special stage dimension for eons (I don't know why that's a bad thing, that place is like fucking heaven.) for hijacking and manipulating technology for it's own gain. Eggman tries to reawaken and use the Temporacle in the fangame, and that goes just as well as you expect. He's also the guy who makes the bad futures in Sonic Hysteria, not Eggman. It also has a connection with the time stones. He is known to hit the woah quite often.

Please help, I think I am addicted to temporacle bathwater.
Hey do you hit the woah often?

temporal narcissism

The self-centeredness or vanity of an individual expressing itself through dysphoria caused by the inability to pause, rewind, or fast-forward stimuli or events occurring around him or her in the same way he or she can pause a TiVo or other media device.
(as described on CNet podcast 591)

-Temporal narcissism is often seen when people regrettably remember that they can't rewind the movie they're watching at the movie theater when they couldn't make out what was said.

-Example of temporal narcissism: Driving home from work today, I got really indignant after remembering I couldn't pause the radio while I ordered dinner at the drive-through window.
