2. A person who fails to see cause and effect, causing humorous or obvious conclusions to be concluded.
3. A person who is or seems to be a catalyst for
strange events. When around a type 3 Spacekees
strange events take place, either as a direct result of the presence, or just by
pure coincidence.
4. A person who can be occupied with (seemingly) unimportant and/or trivial objects.
The origin of the word "Spacekees", arguably, comes from Dutch '
stoner' circles, where the words "spacend" and "kees" were appended. Spacend meaning 'seemingly unreal' or 'mind blowing', and Kees being a stereotypical Dutch name (which is nowadays often used in humorous context).
Nowadays the use of the word has
spread to other circles, which do not necessarily need a connection to mind-altering
drugs. Now and then it is just shortened to "Kees" in very clear contexts.
