PMA (Paranoid Miscommunication Afterthought) 

A period of silence in the middle of a digital chat or after an email you sent, where you fear that something you said might have been horribly misconstrued
OMG, having a massive PMA (Paranoid Miscommunication Afterthought) after telling Jackie that I'd be interested in having No Strings Attached (NSA) sex with her - does she now think I'm not interested in her? Does she think I'm a player and this is my style? Should I clarify on our date tonight? Are we even on for tonight? Why won't she respond on BB IM? Why won't she answer my calls now? How do I make it right? Arghhh!!!

text miscommunication error 

An event while texting where the recipient of your text gains the wrong meaning from your message.
You text "I'm really happy to be at work" to a friend. What you really mean is "I really don't want to be at work." Your friend thinks you are really happy to be at work and life is just grand for you. This is a text miscommunication error.

Miscommunication 

A word that a woman uses when she is wrong in an argument and cannot admit it.
Her: You said the game starts at 6:45, why are you leaving at 5:50?
Him: Because I have to warm up.
Her: Then why did you tell me it starts at 6:45.
Him: Because you asked me what time the game starts.
Her: You knew what I meant. Clearly I wanted to know what time you had to be there, not what time it started.
Him: You asked what time the game starts. How was I supposed to know you wanted to know what time I had to leave if you didn't ask me?
Her: it was just a miscommunication.

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.
I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
