Odometer anxiety

What drivers of leased cars suffer from due to mileage restrictions of 10-15 thousand miles per year.

I am stuck with a leased car for three years and this stupid dealership gave me only 12,000 miles per year. Since I have a long commute, it's clear I'll exceed it. This is why I have odometer anxiety!

Anxiety Amazon-ing

When you're not prepared and you're not in control, so you just keep ordering things that *might* help.

I've been anxiety Amazon-ing every time I think about baby coming home.

Playlist Anxiety

The feeling of anxiousness/embarrassment of others hearing your music playlist, due to the randomness or content of said playlist. Often felt by non-misicians or pop music fans in the presence of the musically inclined.

Johnny's mother felt playlist anxiety when driving his rock band to their next gig as "My Humps" began blaring over the car speakers.

Dad Anxiety

When you look at a little kid and start thinking how you would end up as a dad. You start thinking if you're going to be a cool or a boring dad. Or will you be capable of being a dad??? It's a thought which fill questions in your head.

*Looks at a baby*
Guy: "Man, imagine me being a dad; that would be so cool. Or not. Oh Boy, oh I'll be the worst dad on Earth!!!!!"
Guy 2: "Dude, you're just getting Dad Anxiety. Calm Down,"
