Michigan time

A former scheduling system at the University of Michigan, where classes scheduled to start on the hour actually started at :10 past. A source of much confusion.

Now, just a fancy, outdated way of saying "10 minutes late," with the implication that you've lived in the hellhole that is Ann Arbor for a while.

knight time

Referencing the Kirk Knight single where he says, "what the fuck you know 'bout the knight time." If someone asks you what the fuck you know about the knight time, they are basically asking you what's good. The knight time is when kirk shines brightest, and you should too.
