drawergratitude

/ˈdrɔː ˈɡrætɪtjuːd/nounVerified New

Also in: Schubladendank (Deutsch) · cajogratitud (Español) · tirogratitude (Français)

The brief domestic gratitude felt when a drawer closes smoothly, before the next one jams.

Drawergratitude lasts one second and is felt by everyone who has ever fought the hallway drawer. The good drawer glides and is therefore used for everything important, which is why it sticks by February. The bad drawer is forgiven annually, hammered quarterly, and loved in the end like family.

Etym. — drawer + gratitude — the one-second thank-you said to furniture that works.

Rel. — shelfcliff
