Whyoming
defn: A place you want to avoid like the plague.
Whyoming, a play on the spelling and name of the desolate state Wyoming, adding a "h" in a proper place, helps ask the eternal question: "Why?"
Wyoming is a cold, very windy, desolate state. It has the least amount of people per square mile for a reason. The largest city is its capital, Cheyenne, which is in the range of 60,000 people (yes, a few universities have more students than that).
In short, though it has a few beautiful areas, it's known to urban and city people as a place to avoid like the plague. Why go to Wyoming when Colorado is nearby?

Why O'Clock
That terrible time of night when you are lying there in the dark, staring up at the ceiling, asking whatever deity to which you subscribe why in the world you are still awake and cannot (pleasedeargod) get to sleep because you have to be up in 2 hours. Not caffeine or stress related. When spoken, heavy tone of desperation on the "why". Often associated with fear of knowing the sun will be up soon and looking like you were hit by a train that day.
I couldn't drag myself out of bed this morning because I was lying awake at "why o'clock", replaying the last scene from Halo 3 over and over in my head, worrying about my taxes, and humming the Family Guy theme song. I wanted to cry.
