Columbo Dimension 

Named after "Columbo" the detective who was known to shock people with his great feats of deductive reasoning; the Columbo Dimension is a realm/state of being that a person's mind enters when they are too stunned, shocked or flabbergasted to speak.

This most often occurs when a person is confronted with evidence of their dishonesty, misdeeds or them just being plain old wrong about something but may also occur when someone is roasted too hard.

Perfectly exemplified by the "The Gloved-Hand Reveal | Columbo" clip (timestamp - 4:35) from the Columbo TV Show found on YouTube (The background music may also play in real life should the show of evidence/roast be powerful enough).
M:You can't prove that I pissed in the elevator! Surely it was a dog!
C: Shows elevator camera footage of M drunkenly pissing in the elevator.
M: *is too stunned to speak*

J: SENT HIS ASS TO THE COLUMBO DIMENSION!

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
