five o’clock shadow

The stubble a clean shaven man gets at the end of the day, normally at five o’clock in the evening.

#1: You look tired.
#2: Nah. This is just the five o’clock shadow.

twelve o'clock flasher

A person with no idea how to use any kind of technology. The joke is, all digital clocks, stereos, DVD players, VCRs and so on have their displays flashing 0:00 or 12:00 (twelve o'clock) because the person in question has no idea how to set the time, let alone use any other function offered.

{When standing behind someone at an ATM for a very long time} - What is taking him so long? He must be a twelve o'clock flasher..

I knew i was dealing with a twelve o'clock flasher when she put the CD in data side up.

Can you believe it?! He was trying to use his DVD-ROM to read a floppy! Bloody twelve o'clock flashers!

stupid o'clock

Coined by a graduate student while pursuing her PhD and teaching a full load of courses:

The time of day roughly characterized as being between 2:00 am - 6:00 am (depending upon your personal nocturnal patterns and time zone). It is the time when 'normal' people are asleep, because they have to be up and about during working hours the next day. You are exhausted and want very much to be asleep, too. However, you are awake at stupid o'clock because:

(1) you are grouchily doing work to meet a deadline (perhaps because you waited until the last minute to finish it or have perfectionist tendencies),

(2) you haven't yet gone to bed because you are too foolish/lazy to stop goofing off (surfing the net, talking to friends, watching TV/movies, playing video games, reading a book, etc.),

(3) you have to wake up much earlier than your usual time for an important event (which may be an unwanted obligation or an event you desire to attend),

(4) you experience tremendous inspiration and simply cannot stop writing, painting, coding, constructing or otherwise working on your personal project, whatever it might be (a rare usage of the term).

1. I had insomnia, so I was up until stupid o'clock learning new words on Urban Dictionary.
2. I stayed awake until stupid o'clock finishing the paper that was due today.
3. I can't believe I have to get up at stupid o'clock to meet with my idiot boss.
4. We have to leave the house at stupid o'clock to catch our plane.
5. The party lasted until stupid o'clock, but we all had a lot of fun!
6. Why, yes, it WAS stupid o'clock when I composed this entry.

Four O'clock Freak-out

The four o'clock freak-out occurs on Sunday afternoons before the start of a week of college work. You suddenly realize that it is already four o'clock (the day is almost over!) and you have not done anything in preparation for the week ahead. Instead you have wasted the time you had to do work by surfing facebook, napping, and shopping. This catastrophe could be followed closely by the five o'clock freak-out, which sneaks up while you are wasting more time freaking out.

I spent Friday and Saturday having fun, with good intentions to study on Sunday. I slept in late, putzed around the house until I realized it was FOUR O'CLOCK and I still had to write three papers and put together a presentation, suddenly my stomach dropped, my heart started pounding, and I knew I was experiencing the Four O'clock Freak-out!
