Lagency

[Denamic]

'Lag' is an unusually great delay between event A and B. Like network lag where you stop receiving data for a few ms or more, or input lag if you're running with triple buffering without the power to run it properly, or just a shitty computer being unable to process data fast enough and getting framerate lag.

Regular/reasonable latency is not referred to as lag in this context.

Don't go all Skyfall on people over the definition of lag

That feel when you go through all the trouble to create a comic to smugly correct people on the use of a word, only to discover that you were the only one with a misunderstanding of the word.

So I guess that joke ended up being a... Critical Miss.
