    I’m a shufflemuffel and I say with nary a hint of irony: treat walking like driving and GET OUT OF THE PASSING LANE.

      I find gently scraping your shoe on the floor, on the side you’re passing, to be a great way to get slow people out of the way. They hear a noise on one side and move away from it.

        Alternatively you can quietly gnarl like a rabid dog the whole time. Advantage: your poor shoes don’t suffer. Disadvantage: they’ll take you for a crazy person. Advantage: nobody messes with crazy.

    So people who insist on modifying the exhaust on their cars or bikes to make them louder and annoy everyone around them are Mufflermuffel.
    And when you tell a grouch to stop complaining you’ll be a Muffelmuffler.

    As an American, I am in perpetual shock that schadenfreude doesn’t have an English analog.

    It’s literally our most universal core societal value here and we don’t even have a word for it.
