dissonance 

That sudden feeling of 'ick' when you take a sip of tea but you thought it was going to be Coke. It's not that you dislike tea you just thought it would be Coke.

Dissonance 

Dissonance (music) is the “disagreement” or “clash” between two notes. For example F# and G would have dissonance and this would cause a annoying or “out of tune” sound that isn't very pleasant to hear. But it can be used to add frustration to a piece of music and when used right, it can sound cool.

Béla Bartók used dissonance in his piece String Quartet No.4 especially the 5th movement! It sounded super cool!

vaginal dissonance

(n) - An unstable combination of women that increases ambient bitchiness. This can occur when the natural vibrating frequencies emitted from one woman's vagina interfere with those of another, causing an unappealing positive feedback (aka vagitation) that attenuates the mood of all women contributing to the dissonance. The intensity of vaginal dissonance is directly proportional to 1) the average distance between each vagina, and 2) the average amplitude of emitted vaginal frequencies, which can vary dramatically between women. It is believed that most documented cases of PMS are actually mistaken episodes of vaginal dissonance.

Bob: "Dude, do not go in that room right now."
Paul: "Why?"
Bob: "Because my sister and her mother-in-law are both in there, and the vaginal dissonance is extreme."
Paul: "Damn...would you like to get a taco or something?"
Bob: "Would I!"

ludonarrative dissonance 

What happens when the narrative (story) of a game conflicts with the mechanics (stuff the player does.)

"The cutscene says my character is sensitive and kind... but I just blew off 6 innocent people's heads for the lulz and the game was totally cool with that. There's some serious ludonarrative dissonance going on here."
