curb wash

The colloquial term for the unexpected or expected drenching experienced when a passing vehicle drives through a puddle while a pedestrian is walking along the street; most commonly experienced during or after rainy conditions. It's akin to receiving an impromptu wash from the curb or road, resulting in being drenched and potentially necessitating a change of attire.
1. I had such a rough day at work. My boss was a jerk, I was swamped with mundane tasks, the weather sucked, and to cap it all off, on my way to my car someone totally curb washed me.
2. That puddle is in a prime location to curb wash someone.
3. Just saw this doofus get curb washed on the side walk. He should have taken the bus...

Curb Hermits

Curb Hermits (noun) —
A subspecies of urban cryptid known for their sacred ritual of chain-smoking Marlboros on the same section of curb every day like it’s their personal throne of apathy.

These nicotine-powered philosophers emerge from unknown crevices at odd hours to contemplate life, loudly overshare trauma, and yell “you got a light?” at passing pigeons. Their natural enemies include: showers, employment, and any form of productive behavior.

Found primarily outside gas stations, 24-hour liquor stores, and anywhere weed smells like regret, Curb Hermits operate on a strict diet of American Spirits, Monster Energy, and unmedicated chaos.

Do not approach unless you’re offering a cigarette, gossip, or existential despair.
In the wild:
“Bro, don’t make eye contact with the Curb Hermits outside 7-Eleven. One of them asked me what year it was and then tried to sell me a dreamcatcher made of gum wrappers.”
