Due to the struggle of having countless kids, Mormons run late to most every occasion. It is only acceptable to be late if you are Mormon, otherwise there is no excuse.
The meeting starts at 9:00 but we'll tell Steve that it starts at 8:30 because he runs on Mormon Standard Time.
A time frame in which black people arrive incredibly late.
Yo man Jamal was on black standard time last night got to the club hella late
A standard of time, normally being about 26 minutes after the rest of the people within your time zone.
Dude, WTF? Can't you make it to work on time? Are all your clocks set on Jewish Standard Time?

Jesse Standard Time (JST) is based on the present time zone plus 15 minutes. It's not a standard 15 minutes however and in some cases could be upwards of real-time plus 30 minutes or even 60 minutes.
The origin of Jesse Standard Time is somewhat unknown, but it’s believe it dates back approximately 40 years to 1969.
Jesse Standard Time was first discovered by the author of this term back in 1990. At that time JST was typically only approximately 5 minutes behind real time however over the years JST has increasingly fallen farther behind. Based on statistical analysis of JST over the past 20 years by a team of scientists commissioned by Father time it has been concluded that given the current rate of "time slippage" JST will be a full calendar day behind by sometime in August of the year 2044.
JST cannot be adjusted or altered by any known force in the universe. Many have attempted to compensate for the difference in JST vs. real time by adjusting schedules by up to 30 minutes in hopes to negate the effect. These futile attempts have routinely come up short and have been known to cause JST to slip even farther than normal.
This author recommends that those trying to ignore its existence or to resist JST should just accept it. JST should be embraced by all. JST is a very powerful tool and resistance to its forces will most likely negatively impact your daily schedule, but if used correctly can actually increase the amount of time in your day.
Boss: "Hey Bob, where have you been? We start work here at 8:00AM... It's 8:20AM!!"
Worker: "I'm not late, I'm running on JST."
Boss: "JST, what's that?"
Worker: "That's Jesse Standard Time of course."
Burner Standard Time is the approximation of the time a meeting or event will take place between two attendees of Burning Man, which takes into account the reality that Burners are easily distracted and often late (especially at Burning Man). For instance, 4pm burner standard time should be understood as anywhere between 4:30 and 6pm "real" time.
While it is common parlance at Burning Man, it has application outside of the festival as well.
At Burning Man:
"Let's meet by the temple at at 3 o'clock burner standard time"
Outside of Burning Man:
"Larry is late again!" "Oh, he's still running on burner standard time"
