A condition characterized by an inability to detect the need to poop before the situation reaches crisis proportions
Mike was banned from all theatres in the city of Chicago because he suffered Precipitous Bowel Syndrome and would often interrupt performances by leaping from his seat and rushing to the bathroom. The final straw, however, was the day that, enraptured by the performance, he failed to take note of the warning signs and consequently sullied his seat.

doorwall
A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.
