shadiot

A contraction of "sun shade idiot", any person who puts their car sunshade in the front window even if the car is facing to the north (in the Northern Hemisphere- no evidence exists yet that this occurs in the Southern Hemisphere too).

Quite possibly they do it on purpose thinking that, even though it is daytime, the North Star is out there and it is bigger than the Sun. This excuse would not work in the Southern Hemisphere since they cannot see the North Star.
Three cars in the parking lot are evidently being driven by shadiots today.

vowel buyer

A wimpy individual, a wuss, sissy, or timid scaredy-cat. Someone who cannot make a move until everything is known beforehand.

Originating from the people on "Wheel of Fortune" who either buy a vowel when it is already obvious what the solution is (thus wasting money), or who buy a vowel too early, well before they'd have a chance of solving the puzzle, and thus essentially buy a free vowel for whoever spins next.
The clue was "A game show", he had

"WH _ _ L _F F _ RTUN _"

on the board, and he bought the three E's before guessing! What a vowel buyer!"

To the car in front of you: "C'mon, you vowel buyer! Pull out into traffic and get going! You'll never have a bigger gap!"
