Someone who adds road-blocks, bottlenecks, extra steps, and unneeded issues that delay something or someone, either through inconsiderate thinking, a need to increase their own importance through adding work or over complication, or to gain additional time for themselves in a situation or project where they will not be able to deliver.
1- The meeting should have been quick and solved the problem, but Jim was being a delay hole and kept adding unnecessary take away questions.
2- We didn't make the movie because Chad was being a delay hole and wasn't ready to go when we showed up.
3- The delay hole in the car ahead of us is going 20 in a 50, and in both lanes so we can't go around him.
4- I'd like to get to the bank, but my boss just called me into her office with a minute to go in the day. What a delay hole.
5- We should have been able to deliver that program on time but the programmer didn't check for bugs and left early. What a massive delay hole.

Get the Time Delaymug. One of Nart's most peculiar and dangerous tools is an **extremely delayed boulder**. This boulder, which is typically large and menacing, is not immediately harmful. Instead, its impact is delayed, giving Nart the advantage of surprise. The boulder is often placed in strategic locations where it will eventually roll down a hill, only to strike its targets much later, making it nearly impossible to avoid or predict.
