Get the meanderthalmug. The condition demonstrated by one having one's head down, focused solely one one's cell phone screen while walking, invariably at a slow, dazed pace on a random, haphazard course. Often accompanied by mouth breathing. The condition is non-gender specific.
Terry's meanderthal wanderings have been responsible for multiple cases of other pedestrians having to suddenly change course to avoid collisions, and more than one or two rear-end collisions as Terry aimlessly stepped into traffic without warning, oblivious to the rest of the world.

Get the Meanderthalmug. A meanderthal is a person with a primitive sense of direction or courtesy. These people are commonly found as pedestrians as well as drivers, typically fond of the Prius, making frequent visits to places such as Wal-Mart and Starbucks.

Get the Meanderthalmug. The word meanderthal is a portmanteau of meander and neanderthal to describe a driving behavior.
A meanderthal (as a close cousin of the passhole) is a driver whose rate of speed is slower than the actual rate (not necessarily the legal speed) of the traffic for the lane they are in (e.g. in an HOV lane that is going slower than non-HOV traffic to the right). The driver may even change lanes without additional speed, nor showing intention to pass another vehicle (e.g. in the middle lane of three lane highway going slower than traffic in that lane, and the right adjacent one). The driver is either using a cell phone, is from a stereotypical "nervous" driving group, or (worst case) intentionally being a jerk.
This lack of forethought, awareness, and consideration for other drivers causes disruption, and occasional road rage, creating a danger to themselves and other drivers.

"Damn! Everyone is passing us by because of that @#$% meanderthal in front of us!"
"Another friggin' meanderthal is LOST in the HOV lane again!"
