My wife and I made up “Obstaculators” for ‘two people on an escalator or moving sidewalk who stand abreast of each other so that no one can get by them.’
The list also omitted “Microts” which are the two tiny and useless triangles of paper towel material left between your pinched thumbs and forefingers when you tug at a restroom paper towel dispenser that fails to release the next sheet.
I liked “the Hozone layer,” where the missing single socks are to be found.
Tornadazone – part of the US with the most mobile homes.
Mobilhomazone – part of US with the most tornadoes. (I grew up in tornado alley, have survived three of the b-tards.)
I’ve spent about 28 years in Ohio, and been within a couple hundred yards of tornadoes twice. F4 in April 1999, F1 in 2020. Would not recoomend.
