partialbadge
/ˈpɑːʃəl ˈbædʒ/nounVerified NewAlso in: Restanwesenheit (Deutsch) · tarjaparcial (Español) · restanwéance (Français)
A building access badge that opens some doors, some days, and unaccountably not the one you need.
The partialbadge works on the third floor but not the fourth, today but not tomorrow. Its logic is real to the security system and invisible to its holder. Security's answer is always the same: "try it again."
Etym. — partial + badge — the credential that grants partial existence in the building.
Rel. — badgetithe · badgepanic
Novelty check: APPROVE
