bio break
n.— «One thing I started doing recently (about 1986, I think 😉 is to keep a logbook/diary of what happens. It means we have to stop play fairly often so I can catch up, but everybody uses the time to take a bio break or stretch or something, so it’s not an utter loss.» —“Re: Player’s Tricks of the Trade” Usenet: rec.games.frp Aug. 7, 1991.
