having a moment

Among other uses of the phrase, "I'm having a moment" can be used when one is experiencing an overwhelming revelation or is reeling from great surprise or shock and therefore cannot respond to further questions or information before processing the emotion/information and/or briefly recontextualising/reevaluating other beliefs.

Speaker A: "Hey did you know that glass doesn't actually flow like a liquid people just installed the uneven glass thick-side-down. Anyway what do you want me to order for lunch?" (Speaker A presents Speaker B in passing with information that contradicts a long-held belief of Speaker B)

Speaker B: "Sorry, I'm just having a moment right now" (Speaker B requests Speaker A to allow them time to process the novel information before commiserating about the next topic of lunch)

Having a sit

When you are sitting around with friends and everyone has an idea of something to do, but there is no consensus, so a lot of time passes and you realize that nothing has been done...but everyone still had a blast hanging out. You have been having a sit.

Alternatively, one can proactively avoid the back and forth decision about making plans that don’t come to fruition by just being upfont and suggesting a sit.

After a couple of hours of hanging out, good convo, laughter and not deciding on anything...you have been having a sit

Person 1: “What’s going on tomorrow night?”
Person 2: states several things of little interest to the group
Person 3: “Anyone wanna get together and have a sit?”
Group: “Hell yeah, that sounds good!”
Or
Person 1: “What did you guys do last night?”
Person 2: “We just had a sit”
