1: the last minute, or leaving just enough time to finish the task at hand, sometimes not enough time.

2: doomsday, the end of the world, right before the globe is annihilated, and you dont have enough time to make good on everything you promised or messed up on.

eleventh hour friendship

n., a friendship formed at the last minute, usually because a common means of communication is going to expire. Eleventh hour friendships are commonly formed at the end of grade school, high school, college, and periods of employment with a specific employer. The term comes from the "eleventh hour", i.e. the last possible time.

Joe: "I didn't know Bob was friends with Tim. They never hung out in high school."
Jack: "It was an eleventh hour friendship - they literally only got to know each other after graduation."
