(term, apparently only used in some places on the island of Newfoundland)
Someone who is not doing what they could be doing. Normally specific to the situation.
Used normally as a nudge to take action. To point out something someone is doing or not doing, or could be doing.
Like a
duck sitting in a puddle. Ducks can waddle, swim and
fly, explore the whole world but this particular
duck is sitting in a puddle.
"Great wide world to explore, stop being a Puddle
Duck."
"You aren't happy on your relationship, stop being a Puddle
Duck."
"Ready to go there Puddle
Duck? We are waiting on you."
