When someone is in or too close to your personal space which is making you feel uncomfortable. Same as how the annoyed baseball pitcher feels when the batter is making they're job harder by taking up the area of the plate he is aiming for.

I was standing in the grocery store line, when the impatient person behind me was practically breathing down my neck to get out of there. "He/she" is "Crowding the plate".

Ass Clowning

Where drunk concertgoers break into cars in the parking lot and defecate on the driver’s seat.

If you’ve ever been to a No Talent Ass Clowns concert, you’ve probably seen or heard about “ass clowning” where drunk concertgoers break into cars in the parking lot and defecate on the driver’s seat. It is rumored to have started in 1996 at Consumption Auditorium when Nick Ray Tummo first committed the act. “I was drunk and my friends all thought it was funny so I figured why not keeping doing it at shows? It gives me a kind of special spiritual connection to the concert.”
