Doom Loop Delay (or DLD for short) is when a Doom Looper (someone who watches the same TV show over and over again) has been so entrenched in their Doom Loop, that they have become out of touch with current affairs & TV shows. Shows they haven't seen seem like they were released yesterday, although most non loopers have probably seen them already. There are varying degrees of DLD, from mild to severe.
Doom Looper in the year 2020; Hey friend, have you seen "Making a Murderer"? Its this CRAZY TV documentary show!
Friend of Doom Looper; Yeah, that came out like 4 years ago? Did you only just see that?
Doom Looper in the year 2020; Yeah I just finished it yesterday...
Friend of Doom Looper; What? What have you been doing?
Doom Looper in the year 2020; I was watching "The Office" for the 645th time...
Friend of Doom Looper; I think you're suffering from Doom Loop Delay.
Doom Looper in the year 2020; That's what she said.
Doom Loop Exhaustion (or DLE for short), is when a Doom Looper (someone who watches the same TV show on repeat) has exhausted a particular TV Series or Show to the point where classic jokes or moments don't barely muster a reaction out of them anymore.

Friend of Doom Looper; I think you're suffering from Doom Loop Exhaustion.
