real time chump

A derogatory name for a person watching an episodic series during the actual time during which each episode is released to the public.
Matthew and Angelica are real time chumps; I much prefer watching a show after it's conclusion to being left hanging and glued to the TV every week like they are.

I was the biggest real time chump when the series Lost was being aired for the first time on ABC in the '00s.

OMG OMG OMG! Addicted to the new season of The Bachelor #realtimechump

Between Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, I'm no longer a real time chump but then again, I can't discuss any of the shows currently airing either. #firstworldproblems

in real time

live, current, present, as-it-happens, as-of-now, this very moment

when added to a sentence or exchange of information, the stamp of "in real time"gives the context that the data just exchanged is the most recent, i.e., relevant. see irt (i.r.t.)
it's 7:52 a.m. in real time but by the time you read this it could be evening.

YOU: aren't you getting my texts?
ME: no sorry- my phone number is 555-2334 in real time. text me there.
YOU: why?
ME: bc i never paid my bill so i'm using a text-to-talk app.

Non-Real Time

time from 1:01am-8:59am; time you assume people are sleeping, while you perform a task.
Kevin - Man, I waited until the last day to start my research paper. It is due tomorrow.

Gus - Don't worry about it, you still have a bunch of non-real time left.

Kevin- Good thinking!

Gus - Yeah, I never do my work until non-real time starts.
