jerry-rig - it's not accurate The actual term is jury-rig
Jury rigging refers to makeshift repairs or temporary contrivances, made with only the tools and materials that happen to be on hand. Originally a nautical term, on sailing ships a jury rig is a replacement mast and yards improvised in case of damage or loss of the original mast. Jury-rig has been in use since 1788 but the adjectival use of "jury" in the sense of makeshift or temporary dates from at least 1616, when it appeared in John Smith's A Description of New England.
A false etymology is that "Jerry-rigged" was employed by World War II British troops to refer to the German use of scavenged parts to keep vehicles and weapons functional, from the use of "Jerry" as a pejorative term for German soldiers.

The jury-rigged (not jerry-rigged) contraption made do for now. (jerry-rig - it's not accurate The actual term is jury-rig)

post long term syndrome
After a long term relationship ends, it is common that a person involved in the breakup will then go on to have a rebound that turns into another relationship. This rebound (compared to a normal rebound) moves very quickly and tends to be emotionally and physically intimate from the get go, as if picking up where the ended relationship left off instead of starting anew.
The person with post long term syndrome often is unaware of their condition. The new relationship often ends terribly due to the improper handling of emotions from the past relationship.
Symptoms of post long term syndrome can include: committing to the new partner too quickly, copious amounts of time with the new person, ignoring the pain from the last breakup and covering it up with feelings for the new partner, etc.

Oh man that break up was rough, they were together for 5 years. It's only been a month since things ended, but Cameron already found a new partner! Did you hear they already said 'I love you' and are moving in together this Spring? His post long term syndrome is awful.

short term smiles
Sure you're happy,
but only for a little
Just until your thoughts catch you,
then the arms you bear turn brittle.
