A disease that eats away your brain at the end of finals week and will not allow you to study for your last day of finals. A disease similar to senioritis, but more advanced
You studying for your last final tonight?
>F*ck no I got finalitis...I'm just gonna wing it tomorrow

End of term exams that usually last 1-2 weeks. The worst part of existence for a high school or college student.
Finals are an attempt by teachers to prove that you haven't been bullshitting the entire class, which of course you have. Thus, finals week consists of subsisting on copious amounts of caffeine, limited amounts of sleep, and study sheets downloaded from the internet. Also characterized by large amounts of panic and procrastination posts on Facebook and Twitter.
They account for huge fucking amount of your grade, and it is scientifically proven that you never get the grade on your final that you want to.

A highly contagious disease spreading between students, who approach the end of an educational period. It is common that nearly every student within a term is infected. Even though the symptoms might vary between countries as well as between individual students, the world wide threat can be identified by a massive increase in stress levels. It may also comes with other symptoms such as severe depression, anxiety and insomnia... For some reason teachers all other the world tried to counter this disease with written exams regarding specific topics. Even though this procedure might cure the majority of students, it might also cause long term effects which are proven to impact the students life. Even "cured" persons may suffer from ongoing depression and huge losses in self-esteem and sanity. Testing a students knowledge and skills during this mentally unstable period is also heavily in doubt.
I'm pretty worried about Carl. He behaved pretty strange recently and I didn't see him smiling for weeks..." - "Yep, he's got Finals coming up. Just hope he's recovering well during holidays..."
