Hobbled by Swabs

The weakest link in the chain when it comes to effective COVID-19 testing and contact tracing.
Yup! We've got the test, the reagents, the patients, the demand and pretty much everything else we need... except for the cotton-tipped nasal applicators. The greatest country on earth has been Hobbled by Swabs...

The hunched over walk you must perform to fetch a new roll of toilet paper when you've run out mid dump.

Jason had to poo hobble all the way down the hall yesterday, man. It was hilarious.

humble

1. An admirable quality that not many people possess. It means that a person may have accomplished alot, or be alot but doesn't feel it is necessary to advertise or brag about it.

2. To degrade, to cut one's ego down to size. It is not necessarily done in a rude fashion but it SHOULD BE.
1. I envy humble people. If I told a humble person what I thought about people with humility, they'd probably not even recognize themselves as humble and ask why I'm calling them that. Too bad I don't know any humble people.

2. "DAMMIT, her bragging is getting on my NERVES! Someone REALLY needs to humble that asshat!!"

To bring up one's accomplishments in conversation and contextualize them as a harrowing burden or the product of an accident or fluke.
Peter was telling me that he has four job offers, but he doesn't know how it happened because he's "dumber than an unfrozen cavemen." I wish that dude would just own up to his accomplishments, I'm tired of his humblebrag routine.
