<noun><verb>(to compound-tailgate)
This is when a dumbass/old person in front of you is driving slow, usually going the actual speed limit or below, and you are trying not to tailgate them, when some douchebag genious behind you thinks it a great idea to tailgate you, hoping that will make the guy in front of you go faster. This usually results in a heated exchange, such as the tap of your breaks, wave of your hand, or spraying of the windshield wipers (my personal favorite). In the end, you eternally hate the person behind you because its all their fault.

Sorry I'm late bro, I got stuck behind this old man and this douche behind me caused some serious compound-tailgation, so I had to get out of the car and slap his bitch ass.

The two states of being are as a human being, or a hungry ghost. Semi-regularly you need to ask yourself which you are. Sometimes it is human. Others, alas, it is hungry ghost.
The hungry ghost seeks validity outside of themselves. Someone pining for an indifferent ex is a hungry ghost. Someone who arrives alone at 6:30 on Saturday night to a pub is probably a hungry ghost. Obsessive checking of mobile phones, chat sites or networks are clear signs that one is a hungry ghost.
The best thing to do is just stay home and ride it out. Read a book. Find some good clean fun.

Mate: How are you?
Dumped: I'm a hungry ghost, man.
Mate: What'd ya do last night?
HG: Urg. I hungry ghosted around The Oxford for a few hours, then walked home past her house, and HIS car was there...
Mate: Why'd you call man?! It's just rampant hungry ghostery.
