Carcolepsy

The act of getting sleepy while riding in a car. The word is a portmanteau word from car (for a motor vehicle, but it can occur on a plane or a train as well) and narcolepsy (a sleep disorder). The difference between carcolepsy and narcolepsy is that people who suffer from carcolepsy occurs in people who do not have a sleep disorder. It is theorized that people with carcolepsy are sensitive to gentle vibrations, the sound of the car engine or the tires interacting with the road, and a rocking motion. These stimuli have a soothing effect on some individuals. This sometimes interferes with the person being able to drive although they have no manifestations of narcolepsy. The best example of carcolepsy, although the term is not often used in this situation is taking a fussy baby for a car ride to make them sleepy. Sleep medicine physicians sometimes jokingly use carcolepsy when someone brings this issue to their attention.

I was really looking forward to a chat with Aunt Helen on the drive to Grandma's house but she had an "attack" of carcolepsy as soon as she got into the car and slept the whole way there

carcinogen maxing

When you want to kys, but don’t want your family to know so you consume as many carcinogens as possible to give yourself cancer.

I’ve been carcinogen maxing, so I smoke 2 packs a day, drink tons of cheap alcohol, and eat burnt food.
