A moment (momentum) was a medieval unit of time. The movement of a shadow on a sundial covered 40 moments in a solar hour. An hour in this case means one twelfth of the period between sunrise and sunset. The length of a solar hour depended on the length of the day, which in turn varied with the season,[1] so the length of a moment in modern seconds was not fixed, but on average, a moment corresponds to 90 seconds: A day was divided into 24 hours (of unequal lengths, twelve hours of the day and the night each), and an hour was divided into four puncta (quarter-hours), ten minuta and 40 momenta.”
Damn encyclopedia brown coming through. Got so triggered you took the time to google the exact roots of the word.
A moment is subjective, as in “your cousin waited a few moments before telling you to get out of her”. Check out the dictionary.com definition for me next, then report back champ.

A moment, subjectively, is 90 seconds on average. Much longer than you or I thought.
And yeah, it took considerably less than a moment to find the answer.

And as for triggering? The old cousin reference clearly confirms who’s triggered and who’s the triggeree.
Baw.

Yep, I ‘member. You could feel it watching the game on TV. Tiger stadium was louder than it was all night when the LSU fans that they had injured Tua. I’ve never really seen that happen for an injury before. Hilarious turn of events-great times!

I remember that time in the 4th Quarter when L8U fans were wondering when Devin White was going to enter the game.

Member that time Devin White showed up at halftime and the Tigahs won the Bourbon Bowl?
Me neither.
