placism 

The belief that it is virtuous to buy from people who live closer to oneself.

Just as we should abhor racism that manifests itself by preferring to buy things from people of our own race, we should abhor placism that manifests itself by preferring to buy things from people who live nearer to us.

Placism 

When a person tries to order take-out, but the operator says they can't take their order because they don't deliver in that area.

That is flagrant placism.

PLACIST 

Discriminating against a town, city, region or country based on loose stereotypes.

Ashlyn is such a placist. She thinks that everybody who lives in Florida is old, senile, plays golf all day and is a terrible driver.

pacism

1: A(n) (often unconscious) belief that pace is a primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that pacial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular pace.

2: A belief that a hurried pace is superior to that of a slower pace

3: An obnoxious impatience with slow pace. Type A personalities often exhibit this impatience and oppress those of slower pace.

In a coffee shop one notices the pacist telling a barista who is preparing a caffeinated beverage to order, "Hurry up! I have a meeting!!!" The pacist acts as if their own timing and agendas are not only superior to that of the slower pace people but that the slower pace of others is inherently annoying or cause for oppression. Pacism is the underlying factor in impatience with others' slower pace.

Pracism 

The opposite to racism; positive racism or praising a race.
Note: there is a fine line between Pracism and fact.

Alex: "Asians are good at maths."
Joyce: "Erm, Alex, that's racist."
Alex: "Erm, Joyce, no, it's positive - I think you'll find that makes it pracism."

Others include: "Italians make good lovers" and "Black people can jump high".

placisity 

To be in the state of peace. To feel calm, or serene.

The man outside the pub insisted he invented the word placisity in 2001, but it's still not in the dictionary. This made him angry. He was not in a state of placisity.

(True story). Now that it's in a dictionary hopefully he is on his way to placisity.
