meanderthal

People who wander around aimlessly and always seem to get in your way in stores and supermarkets, chatting on their cell phones and paying no attention to their surroundings.

I would have been here ten minutes earlier if I hadn't been stuck behind that meanderthal.

Meanderthal

A person with nowhere to go and nothing to do who wanders the sidewalks aimlessly in a swervy, slow path that blocks the paths of people who do have somewhere to go and something to do.

I was supposed to be at the Museum of Natural History thirty minutes ago but my path was slowed and at times completely blocked by roving packs of meanderthals.

meanderthal

One who has difficulty determining their next course of action in traffic (sometimes going 10-20mph top speed), and, as a result, is not predictable and does not use their turn signal.

Oh my God. We're going to be late AGAIN. This guy in front of me's a fucking meanderthal.

meanderthal

An old person who walks at an extremely slow pace. (This word is a combination of "meander" which means to walk slowly with no apparent destination, and "neanderthal" which refers to something old, ancient or prehistoric.)

I watched as the meanderthal across the street gradually made his way to the car.

Meanderthal

One who wanders about thoughtlessly.

We were at the mall and realized that Nate had walked off. He's such a meanderthal.

Meanderthal

Someone who's not very smart but goes on talking and talking circuitously around a subject without ever making any coherent point. Could be used to describe many politicians, including several State of the Union addresses of the past decade. Also applies to university professors, conference speakers, TV and radio personalities, etc.

"I can't believe so many people voted for that meanderthal."
"How did this meanderthal ever get tenure?"
"I actually paid money to sit here and listen to this meanderthal?"
"Enough of this meanderthal! I'm changing the channel."
