A fork of Rural Dictionary
A period of time. It is derived from the computer term jiffy, which is a clock (computer) dependent interval of time. It is so short that hundreds of thousand could pass and a human couldn’t even sense it. From the human perspective, with any passage of time the jiffies would just wiz by, hence the term “jiffy wiz”.
Usage: "I gotta squat for a jiffy wiz in The Gran Manzana and I've been head sparkin’ ‘bout pounding that Coney fillet in a twee fire-in-the-hole. The dewclaws are up. Ya wanna draft my flivver? Bang the pipes by 5:00 or hold peace.” Translation: "I’ve got a layover in New York City and was thinking about getting a hotdog in a quaint restaurant. I’m enthusiastic. Do you want to come along? Call me by 5:00 or it will be too late."
