During the coronavirus lockdown in S.A. I did so many zoom meeting daily, I felt zoomed.
After a full day of staring at a computer screen, I was so zoomed. I couldn't keep my eyelids open.
I used to have so much energy, but ever since we went into quarantine lockdown, I just feel zoomed all the time.
When on a video call, you start to talk but stop because the other person starts to talk but they stop to let you talk. This repeats for a few moments as you all say half words but then stop for the other person to say a half word.
Eventually there is an awkward long pause as both parties wait for the other to speak. Then both parties start talking at the same time again resetting the cycle.
A virtual equivalent to trying to move aside in the grocery store aisle to avoid a cart collision but both people move to the same side. Chaos ensues as both people try to find a route out of the way of the others route while not communicating with the other person.

The tune for the phrase "Zoom Zoom Zoom" in the show "Scrubs" comes from the 1993 movie "Only the Strong" The original tune in the movie is more tribal and basic till one of the characters in the movie, Donovan played by Ryan Bollman, borrowed the taped from the main character, Lewis Stevens played by Mark Dacascos, and added an early 90's techno and dance remix to the tribal tune. The lyrics, zum zum zum, have changed due to the Mazda commercial and the tune changed from the tribal to the zoom zoom zoom, to the one used in the episode of Scrubs.
The Capoeira is a Brazilian dance fighting technique and the original tribal song has the lyrics of zum zum zum and Zoom Zoom Zoom came from the Mazda slogan Zoom Zoom, and so the Zum was changed to Zoom
