When you expect or thought you felt a text or a phone call, but instead you just got either an alert for a game, or nothing at all. You then feel embarrassed and read the time aloud, as if that was your true intention.

Democrat: It should only be a choice made by that person, not an authority! And by the way, we don't fund it...private donors fund it! What do you have to say about that?
Republican: Well, last time I checked, it is against the Bible and against the law!

in the sport of basketball, whenever a player makes 3 consecutive baskets from down town (3 3pointers) he/she has entered what is known as Heat Check Time. Heat Check Time entitles that specific player to the right of shooting the ball from anywhere and not be called a ball hog.
