Quarter-Life Crisis 

Similar to the mid-life crisis, but happens around the early twenties. This particularly affects college students who just got a whole heaping helping of reality thrust upon them. Signs of a quarter life crisis may include: Constant tears, staring into an abyss of emptiness trying to figure out your life, incessant muttering, an unwilling impulse to curl up in the fetal position, and that crazy pot head in high school just became a parent and you can't stop thinking you will be next.

--Jeremy?!? The guy who did twenty shots before the final?

--Yeah. Makes you wish you were back in middle school.
