power outrage 

The feeling of sheer anger and helplessness when you realize the power has just gone out.

This is more than a power outage... it's a power outrage.

I hate this ice storm. I hope it doesn't cause a power outrage.

We’re out of a scheduled power outage 

When you’re tired but you cannot sleep, or you’ve missed your opportunity to sleep.

Friend: “You need to go to bed it’s late”
You: “I would, but we’re out of a scheduled power outage”

power outage baby 

Years ago, the power went out in San Francisco for a long time. Nine months later, there was a certain increase in birthrate. If you were born nine months aftert a power outage, you are a power outage baby.

Thomas is a power outage baby.

power outage banter 

Unusual conversation with family, friends or neighbors after loss of electricity following a big storm or natural disaster. Starts innocuously then devolves into random talk driven by nerves.

After the lights went out, I spoke with neighbors I never even met. The power outage banter started with what happened, then ended-up with weird and unrelated topics. Now we just smile a little when we see each other.

AC/DC POWER OUTAGE

When you turn off all the lights in your apartment at 3 a.m. and play AC/DC as loud as possible.

The Ginch: Neighbors are fighting again.
Charney: Time for an AC/DC power outage.
