Time-Area of Effect (TAoE)

noun

When an event messes with your energy or mood before and after it actually happens.
Inspired by video game “area of effect” attacks, except this one hits across time instead of space.
Example:
If I have to go to work on Tuesday, I’m already tired on Monday and still exhausted on Wednesday.
That’s the time-area of effect (TAoE) of my job.

Usage:
“Bro, that meeting has such a huge TAoE, I can’t enjoy my weekend.”
“Vacations have a positive TAoE. The good vibes start before you even leave.”

I don't have time

When you say you don't have time for something, what you're really saying is, "This is not a priority for me right now." The 'no time' excuse is seductive because it sounds reasonable and removes personal responsibility. Research has found that it's socially acceptable to be busy, even admirable in our culture, which is why so many people lean on that excuse rather than just admitting the truth: 'This isn't my main focus right now.'
When my girl friend asked me to help her Chemistry assignment, I was like, 'I don't have time,' but really I just wanted to binge-watch my favorite show instead.

Highest grossing R-rated film of all time

Who wrote it and what's it called?
Hym "Bwahahahahahahahaha! You see how much the Jew thing bothers him? Don't be a reply-guy Ben. It's pathetic and contemptible. He jumped right on it too. He reads me every day. Wave everybody. 👋 If you're ever sitting at home wondering what failed writers do in their free time it's 'read the work of much better writers'. Well, 1 writer to be exact. The writer of the 'Highest grossing R-rated film of all time' That's how you know it's God's will. The retard in a cult analogy fits here too! Uh oh! Is it too easy for the retard in the sex cult to succeed where you failed? Did Todd do it because I'm better than you at an existential level and I deserve it more? Or is muh brains just so big and appealing that he couldn't resist that sweet, sweet meat? Did I work harder? No... No. That can't be it.... It's gotta be one of those. It's just hilarious. Because it could have done decently. It could have been bad. But it was THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Way to not be a stereotypical bunch of greedy, deceitful, thieving Jews guys! Look at how stupid your entire race looks now because of you! AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
