atrial sclerosis - |
(n.) 1. a buildup of people (chatting, talking, walking slowly, milling about purposelessly, whatever) clogging an atrium, or (by extension) clogging or narrowing free space in a hallway, doorway, stairway, highway, byway, grocery aisle, ticket booth, vel. cet. 2. a buildup of users attempting to access a site and using up all the bandwidth so you can't get in. (from arteriosclerosis 'hardening of the arteries.'---this analogy, btw, would make such a clog an 'atheromatous plaque' ... Greek for "porridge lump layers." Perhaps we should call all the people hogging a road or a website "Plaquers.)

You'd better go ahead and start without me." | "Wow, getting out of the stadium was sclerotic! How many people were in there?" | "I can't seem to get the La Virkin town ordinances to come up." "Well, what did you expect? they passed a law making the town a 'UN-free zone.'" "So what?" "Well, that's bizarre enough that everyone and their dog is looking it up. You'll never get through all the plaquers." |
