bagserpent
/ˈbæɡˌsɜːpənt/nounVerified NewAlso in: Tütenschlange (Deutsch) · bolsapiente (Español) · sacerpent (Français)
The plastic-bag-of-bags under the sink, which regrows no matter how much is removed from it.
The bagserpent is fed every shopping trip and grows without digestion. It sheds into other rooms, and any attempt to thin it produces three more bags in the coat pocket. Households that boast of canvas totes still harbor one, coiled, patient, and full.
Etym. — bag + serpent — the under-sink coil that can never be slain, only managed.
Rel. — trashbagballoon · detergentestate
