clutter blindness

A condition that occurs as a result of living in and around so much miscellaneous debris and detritus (AKA clutter), that it becomes impossible to see the object you’re looking for. Symptoms are exacerbated when said object is nestled in the mess, right in front of your face. The worst symptoms of clutter blindness seem to peak when the missing object is small, easily recognizable, of great value and/or importance, especially when you could swear to Christ you just had the goddamned thing a second ago.

wanted to go out with you guys really badly, but I spent the whole weekend suffering from clutter blindness. I was searching for my grandmother’s engagement ring, which is very valuable, shiny, important, and I desperately needed to find so I could propose to Jennifer. Luckily the clutter blindness briefly lifted after a week of searching and I was able to see that it had been on my coffee table the entire time, nestled amidst a collection of Snapple and 2-liter bottle caps, various writing utensils, two full dinner services worth of flatware, and the two sets of keys I already lost this year the exact same way, and which yes, I was coincidentally looking for! Thank you so much for asking!

Southeastern Alaska State Technical College of the Blind and Deaf

American college football term for a small, barely heard of college who is matched up against one of the top teams in FBS and has an exactly 0% chance of beating them.

Also can be used as a derogative term for any random college nobody knows.

Shortened form of the college is “SEASTCB&D” (Pronounced: “CEASED-kuh-band”) if you’re too lazy to say 17 syllables.

Mike: “We’ll need Alabama to lose a game soon if we’re gonna have any shot at winning the division. Who are they playing against this weekend?”

Jeff: *google search* … “Something called Southeastern Alaska State Technical College of the Blind and Deaf”.

Mike: “What’s the point spread? 222.5?”

Jeff: “Maybe if Bama puts in the waterboys, but I guess I’ll be rooting for the… *checks phone*… Abominable Snowmen… out of mere desperation.”

Mike: “Looks like we’re on the SEASTCB&D-wagon this Saturday at noon!”

Jeff: “This will totally be worth three hours of my weekend!”

blind quote

A blind quote is an estimate of the cost or service when no, or limited research is done to pin point a more accurate amount or timeline. This is less through than a standard estimate where time is available and given to narrow down a more likely cost or timeframe.

I pushed the guy at the repair shop to tell me some amount for my brake repair. He gave me a blind quote, but said this is his best guess without seeing it, and thus not official.

sugar-blindness

A temporary state in which sweet food or drink items cause a person to find savory or otherwise less sweet food or drinks less sweet or appealing, when they would otherwise think that it is sweet.

*Drinks very sweet coffee, then eats some jelly toast* “This toast isn’t very good… I’m probably sugar-blind from my coffee.”
“I’ve got sugar-blindness from that donut I ate before supper.”
