jump cringe

Like a jump scare, except cringeworthy instead of scary.

When you think something (e.g. a movie or tv show) is alright until you get hit by a sudden, unexpected wave of cringe.

Also known as jumpcringe.

I was watching "The Mitchells vs. the Machines" yesterday and just when I thought the movie was getting better, they hit me with a jump cringe. Those unfunny jokes ruin the moment and give me secondhand embarrassment.

Irohazaka Jump

Also known as, "Line inside the inner line/shoulder"is the unofficial term for an driving technique used by a fictional Touge racer appearing in the Initial D series, Kai Kogashira, to overtake the opponent by jumping off the road to the other side of the hairpin curve.

The term "Irohazaka Jump," is developed due to the location where the characters raced, Irohazaka mountain pass, which is known for having huge height gap at the hairpin curve, thus made it possible to jump off the road to the other side.

The theme song used during this technique is "Crazy for love" by Dusty.

The term "Irohazaka Jump" usually used whenever someone jumps off the road to the other side of the hairpin curve in Racing simulator games such as Assetto Corsa and Gran Turisomo series.

Jump Force

The Sonic '06 of arena fighting games. Choppy gameplay, lots of loading screens, terrible animation, big empty hub world, and to top it off you get a terrible story mode. It is a laughably unfinished game that was just made as an easy cash grab for your classic weeb.

"Jump Force would've been pretty good if it was more focused on quality rather than quantity."

AC Jump

1. An inappropriately large jump in weight between attempts in a powerlifting competition.

2. Any situation, sports or otherwise, where a person attempts to accomplish something far beyond their previous best effort.

Boy: Daddy, that big hairy man in a swimsuit just PR'd at 533.5. And he called for 570 for his final lift! That's a crazy jump.

Dad: No, son, that's an AC Jump.

jump the gun

to do something too soon, especially without thinking carefully about it (Originally used in sports contests that are started by firing a gun. If someone running in a race jumps the gun, they start running before the gun has been fired to start the race.)

He shouted at me before I had time to explain, but later he apologised for jumping the gun (jump the gun).

jump-the-shark

The beginning of the end. Something is said to have "jumped the shark" when it has reached its peak and begun a downhill slide to mediocrity or oblivion. It's said to have been coined by Jon Hein, who has a web site, jumptheshark.com, and now a book detailing examples, especially as applied to TV shows. It supposedly refers to an episode of the TV show "Happy Days" in which Fonzie jumps over a shark on water skis, which Hein believes was the point at which the series had lost its touch and was beginning to grasp at straws.

A TV show's sure "jump-the-shark" sign: the appearance of a "special guest star".
