macabridging
When your entire party stands up at the table of a public restaurant, as if you were going to leave, but instead of leaving you stand around the table and block the wait staff as well as other patrons so that you can continue the conversation you've had at the table during a meal that lasted over 2 hours. Many times this act of macabridging will extend from the table into the lobby of the restaurant as well as the front entrance. Occasionally the macabridging crowd will split into two groups allowing for more blockage opportunities.
The record for macabridging (including meal time) is 5 hours 37 mintues, including the combined times of 1:12 waiting for everyone to arrive LATE, :24 to negotiate who sites next to whom, :12 minutes to rearrange seating after the order was placed, 2:14 for the meal, :45 minutes to get the checks straight after the wait staff was confused from the seat shuffling and finally the additional 1:50 for standing around the table after the meal which did in fact extend both into the lobby and the main entrance.

Oh no, it's those people that macabridge around the table for an hour after they've paid the bill.
Hey, do you think we can slip out early and avoid the macabridging at the table? The football game is on tonight.
