pathos

Source of the word "pathetic." An almost predetermined likelihood that events will play out in a certain way. Resistance is futile (pathetic)... the 'stupidity' of trying to change things that are obviously going to go in a certain direction.

Manfred was overcome by the pathos in Hamlet.

Jimmy saw the oil all over the road right in front of his car, so he stomped on the brakes and turned the wheel to avoid the concrete wall on the other side. How pathetic.

out-of-pocket

prairie-dogging

A phenomenon where, in a landscape of office cubicles, a number of people stand up to look around over the tops of the cube walls. Usually an unexpected/loud noise or verbal exchange will cause the curious to rise like prairie dogs out of their holes. The people will scan the cube horizon and soon sit back down.

The white noise system was going nuts and making crazy barking sounds--nobody could get much done because of all the prairie-dogging.

oblividroid

A person that automatically does things without thinking about them.

That oblividroid just went ahead and processed the request without even noticing how absurd it was!
