Function: Noun
Pronunciation: \i-ˈle-vən ˈā-tē ˈtü\
An Eleven Eighty-
two is an individual of certain body dimensions which cannot be accommodated by conventional seating such as airplane seats or
roller-coaster seats. An Eleven Eighty-
two requires additional or modified seating space.
The term originated in the south-eastern United States in the
early 21st century. Particularly, the term developed in Orlando
Florida at the theme park, Universal'
s Islands of Adventure. It first came into usage as a discrete coded terminology for park employees to identify individuals who could not be accommodated by the attraction's seating.
The term Eleven Eighty-
two has become synonymous with an individual who exhibits an unreasonable level of morbid obesity; thus, the requirement for additional or modified seating. It has since entered
common vernacular, also as a discrete coded terminology to identify serious fatties. Ironically, however, its wide-spread usage has eliminated the secrecy of the term.
Usage 1) Park attraction operator: "We've got an Eleven Eighty-two in row one. Relocate them to the modified seating in row
five."
Usage 2) "I've got the nastiest mobile upload of this Eleven Eighty-two I saw last
night. I'm gonna
tag you in it."
