assence

The odor / essence a person leaves behind after exiting a bathroom or restroom stall. The odor can be from, but not limited to, a bowel movement, body odor, feminine odor, male odor, butt odor, and sex odor.

The assence remaining in the stall was so horrific, it smelled as if the woman hadn't showered in a week after having sex.

Absentee man

A guy who wants you to believe that you and him are in a serious relationship but is never present or doesnt actually do anything for you or with you. He expects your full commitment despite his negligence of the relationship and your needs.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself and leave him! Drake is clearly an absentee man.

Absentee gear

Absentee gear is gear which looks good to a beginner who isn't familiar with a hobby yet, but is actually low quality.
The kind that a good role model (such as a present father figure) would prevent you from buying, as they'd tell you to do better.

Often, but not always, associated with "50 features in 1", gimmicks with little practical application, and cheaper materials.
Originates in the outdoor community, but is applicable for a broad range of hobbies.

Jeremy bought a survival axe from walmart with a built-in compass, survival whistle and magnifying glass. Unfortunately the handle was made from cheap plastic, so it broke within a week.

Had he had someone to show him what to look for instead, he'd not have fallen for such absentee gear.
