E-Drenaline

Just like Adrenaline but rather from the internet instead. Specifically video games of the MMORPG or FPS genre. See "Boom Headshot" on YouTube.

"What can I say? There's nothing but the rush of hunting people down and killing them! I mean my hearts beating! MY HEARTS BEATING! My hands are shaking! MY HANDS ARE SHAKING! BUT I'M STILL SHOOTING! I'M STILL GETTING HEADSHOTS! It's like BOOM HEADSHOT." -Some Guy Consumed in E-Drenaline

Greek Deadline

A hard deadline which absolutely, positively, must be met or the world will end. Or not. Whatever.

"In other news, another Greek deadline for resolving their fiscal crisis has come and gone. Finance ministers are now saying that the REAL deadline for resolving this crisis is in two weeks."

artificial deadline

A random deadline to complete a task, which has no real world consequences. For example, your office sets Monday as the deadline on all canned food donations for charity , but the box just sits there until Friday, which is the actual day they planned on taking it to the food bank.

"Hey bro, did you get your weekly report done for the big boss? He needs it today!"

"Naaah, it's only Wednesday. Wednesday's an artificial deadline, because he doesn't even send those reports to corporate for another week."
