DVR depression

(n.) When you set an important episode (i.e. the season finale) of your favorite show to record for the hour it's on, only to realize later as you watch that the show actually went to 10:02 instead of 10, and you missed the last 2 plot-crucial minutes. This then results in the DVR user being very bummed out/depressed.

This can also happen if your DVR runs out of space and ends the recording early.
<Josh> Man, I'm so bummed out.
<Jackson> Why?
<Josh> I missed the last two minutes of the season finale of LOST last night. Did you happen to catch it?
<Jackson> No, man. Sounds like you'll just have to deal with a tough case of DVR depression.

DVDepression 

The sad feeling that hangs over avid movie-watchers when they recently sent all 3 DVD's back to Netflix at the same time, and wont be receiving any new movies for about 3 or 4 days.
Girl: What movie are we watching tonight, babe?

Guy: No movies, I sent them all out this morning. We are in DVDepression.

Girl: What?! I told you to send Twilight back 3 days ago! How could you do this to us a new one could've been in already!
