Trend Lag

Jet lagging of social trends between a country and another, either due to timezone differences, or otherwise.

Ex. 1: #AppleEvent is trending in Egypt, although the event has ended more than 24 hours ago. This is definitely a trend lag.
Ex. 2: #Oscars2015 is trend-lagged in Germany.

trendy lag

when someone purposely waits many minutes to reply to a text, snap, or call in order to avoid looking desperate.

Person 1: texts their friend

Person 2: waits 5 minutes to respond

Person 1: "are you trendy lagging me?"

Person 2: "...no......." (actually means yes)
