mopstandoff
/ˈmɒpˌstændɒf/nounVerified NewAlso in: Wischpatt (Deutsch) · trapempate (Español) · serpimpasse (Français)
The spill that two household members each leave for the other, indefinitely.
The mopstandoff begins with a drip nobody owns and ends, days later, with the spot as landmark. Each party noticed it, each decided it was beneath them, and both walk around it now by habit. It is cleaned eventually by whoever hosts next, in a rush, and the credit is disputed.
Etym. — mop + standoff — two armed sides, one mop, zero rounds fired.
Rel. — mopcurious
Novelty check: APPROVE
