Third Day Syndrome

The inexorable tendancy for serious injury due to novel activity familiarity and progressive exposure.
Goin' skiing for the first time, eh?
Yeah, I'm totally stoked!
Taking lessons, are you?
Sure am! I've got an Olympic instructor lined up.
***1 week later***
(leg in cast) So, How'd it go?
Well, everything was totally fine. Got a TON of confidence and really started the hang of it...
Then what happened?
Well, I got good enough to be over-confident on the big slopes.
Ahhh, yes. Third Day Syndrome strikes again!

A Third-Word Country

= a place where even the wealthy suffer, and only every third word is intelligible during a zoom call.
The Coronavirus does not discriminate between socio-economic strata, leveling all of Humanity; so when a grey rectangle appears on our screens--YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION HAS BECOME UNSTABLE-- we can barely make out every third word, combined with TERRIBLE distortion, during our only tenuous links to the outside world-- our Zoom} calls-- & we are all, thus, living in "A Third-Word Country!"

squeaky third wheel

When you go out with your best friend and another person comes along, that extra person is the (STW or Stew) squeaky third wheel. You and your best friend are the well-oiled, smooth-going rear wheels of the "tricycle" and since the other party is not as close as the two of you are, they say and do things that throw a wrench in your plans or irritate and cause friction.
Do we have to invite the Squeaky Third Wheel? I'd rather just go with only you. Stew can be a little bossy.

Third Wheeling Yourself

When you set up two of your friends to make a cute couple so you can prove to your haters that you are a real love guru but then that couple proceeds to third wheel you every time you hang with them. This conflicts your emotions as you don't know whether to be happy for them or mad because they don't pay attention to you. So instead, you joke around about third wheeling however deep down, you are hurting. Common with people named Tasnia.
