timesick

Just like homesick, except it's a longing for a different time than the present.

1) All this homework is making me timesick; I wish we could just go back to kindergarten when our hardest assignment was coloring inside the lines.
2) I'm timesick. I wish I could just fast forward to after graduation.

Timesuck

Timesuck is the name of a podcast hosted by comic Dan Cummins who does an irreverent and well-researched deep-dive on one listener-suggested subject every Monday on anything that’s interesting. Past topics include: The Golden State Killer, Spartacus, Area 51, The Knights Templar, the Jim Jones Cult, Doc Holliday, Joan of Arc, Slenderman, the Salem Witch Trials, and the Bermuda Triangle. Episode is also full of inside jokes, crazy characters, and a respectable amount of profanity.

On Monday’s I always suck hard when the Master Suckers drops a new Timesuck.

TV Tropes Timesink

An area of the internet where time stops, coincidentally overlapping with the site TV Tropes.

Similar to a wikicoma.

Somebody mentioned this thing called "phlebotinum;" next thing I knew, I was digging myself out of the TV Tropes timesink six hours later.

timesink

Anything which takes up a lot of your time. I can be homework, a diy project, a tv show, or even a ridiculously long nap. It can be enjoyable, or even productive, but it requiers sinking a lot of time into it... therefore timesink.

I decided to start baking my own bread... didn't realise it was such a timesink.

Mad Men is great, but it is such a timesink.

timesuck

The void that gets created by engaging in an activity that seems like it will be short but ends up taking up huge amounts of time. Like watching video on YouTube, or browsing definitions on Urban Dictionary, or playing Halo 3 on Xbox

Tim: I am so tired, last night I was going to bed and grabbed my laptop to check email. Before I knew it I fell into a timesuck on YouTube and it was 2 am.

Jeff: yeah, that happened to me last week browsing Urban Dictionary
