The frequent sensation that your phone is vibrating in your back pocket when, in fact, it is not. This is usually associated with shifting internal gas or the anticipation of a booty text.
Todd texted me the "What's up" and we hooked up the other week, but since then, nothin. I 've developed a bad case of PBVS- Phantom Butt Vibration Syndrome.

This really isn’t a word but more of a term. So when you are walking across the street and you hear a car but there is no car that’s what I call phantom car. The real science behind the term is your hearing cars on a different street go by.
For example say you’re walking with friends or family and you start walking across, but whoever you’re walking with is concerned because they “hear a car” you can just tell them it is phantom car.

Derived/misheard from the internet slang term “Fanum Tax,” Phantom Tax is a friendly act of taking another’s items for a short time, essentially borrowing the item(s) without consent or stealing.

Where you get notifications for a message and you check to see it but it isn’t there and when no one deleted it.
Even when you check a groups audit log it will show no sign of a message being deleted.

The feeling of wearing a watch despite not actually wearing it, this can come from being used to wearing watches. Not harmful in the slightest, just weird.

Ah, Phantom Watch Syndrome.
Jimmy I told you to stop using retarded definitions on urban dictionary.
