Shock and Awe

When your AP US teacher gives back your tests and you're in shock because the grade you got is dramatically different from what you thought you got and then you're in awe from what grade you actually received.

Silvio: "I definitely got a 100% on that, hahaha *Looks at test grade* haha.."
Gary L: "What happened?"
Silvio: "Shock and Awe."

shelf shock

when there is an overload of senses to shoppers when they go to a shelf and it is filled to the brim with eyecatching/bright colored boxes making the shopper overwhelmed and angry.

Shopper: "AARRRGGH! Muh Eyes! Muh Head! Too...Many...Things...Trying To Get My Attention!"
Shopper #2: "Ha ha, you just got Shelf Shock!"
Shopper 2 starts to laugh his @$$ off at other shopper's misery

Dysphoric Shock

When someone of a fluid transgender identity realizes they've "switched over"; when someone comes out of denial of their trans identity.

I was talking my friend about masculinity the other day, and I realized I felt like a man again. I about had a panic attack from the dysphoric shock".

Shock shot

When a horror film quickly jump cuts to a close up, usually paired with a large sound.

I'm pissed that Paramount changed the ending of Paranormal Activity to a shock shot. The internet original wrapped up everything so nicely...no room for them to run the series into the ground.

Block Shock

The feeling of disbelief and confusion when someone finds out that a person who they considered a good friend has blocked them on facebook. During the shock the blocked person trys to figure out why they were blocked, often resulting in a irrational feeling of being a creepy person or a stalker.

" Yo Bills in block shock. That girl Mary, the one he posts five times on her wall everyday, yeah she blocked him"

zero shock

In the career of any successful trader/private equity investor, there comes a moment when the amount of money risked on single trades starts to far exceed what individuals outside of the financial industry generally handle on a year to year basis. When said trader/investor first crosses this threshold, he stands at risk of suffering from 'zero shock', as the number of zeros in the checks he writes may be more money than his father earned in a year, or in a lifetime.

Tommy wrote his first $1,000,000 check last week, to participate in a series B financing. He got a touch of zero shock as he signed the line and tore the check free. "This is the life we chose", he muttered, passing the check onwards.
