predatory pregnancy

The act of a woman secretly going off the pill in hopes of having her unknowing partner impregnate her and trapping him with a paternity suit and/or child support nine months later.

"Tim just got sued by his ex for child support for her new baby, even though they broke up a year ago. The paternity test was positive, and she hasn't been with anyone else since. This stinks of a predatory pregnancy."

Party Purgatory

The limbo-like state between a daytime activity (party, barbeque, crawfish boil, festivity, etc.)and a night time party.

Party Purgatory usually conveys the idea that one has yet to determine what night-time event to pursue.

Usually, the period of party purgatory is a good opportunity to catch a nap, meal, shower, or change of clothes.

Phone Call: "Hello...Yeah, we just got in from the Crawfish boil and are just hanging around the house for a little while.......No I don't know if we are going to the concert or to Sally's party yet. We are in Party Purgatory right now.

Zubat Purgatory

A term used in Pokémon Sun & Moon when a Zubat calls for help, in turn summoning another Zubat with full health. After killing the first Zubat and lowering the health of the next Zubat, it proceeds to call for help, summoning yet another Zubat. This process can continue for over 10 minutes.

Person 1 (to Person 2): Hey Michael's been fighting those Zubats for quite some time now..
Person 2 (to Person 1): Yeah, it seems he's trapped in Zubat Purgatory at the moment..

Pandemic Purgatory

When countries are caught between the desire to open up their borders to lure tourists to their shores and the fear of triggering new waves of infections.

Singapore finds itself in a pandemic purgatory situation: Should it allow thousands of migrant workers back to revive its comatose construction industry, or should it wait until the infection rates in the countries where these workers come from to head south?
