Pronunciation: stal-king-lot

Sentence: Marta expertly circumnavigated the stalkinglot on Black Friday morning. She knew that finding the best parking spot would take cunning and patience. She watched and waited for her quarry, shoppers who have been feeding on the sales, to come out of the mall, tired and loaded down with bargains. Her strategy was to follow them to their place, closely, but not too close, to claim their space. Idiling quietly she would wait for them to tuck away their booty while displaying her turn signals to fend off any other spot hunters lurking nearby. Posessing skill and a trained eye, she caught the small movement of a car with its backup lights up in the front of aisle J and began to position herself to intercept their place as soon as it was vacated. She waited calmly and turned on the signals to warn other drivers that the space was hers. The people took forever to settle down their toddlers and find their sunglasses, but the wait would be worth it. Finally, the vehicle backed slowly out of the space and she was about to claim her prize, when out of nowhere, a white minivan with the requisite soccer magnet appeared and boldly pulled into the space, right in front of her, denying her the victory. After a blast of the horn and some choice words and gestures, the spacehunter began to cruise the stalkinglot once again, waiting for another opportunity to catch the perfect space.

Etymology: stalking: to persue by tracking stealthily; to follow and observe + parking lot: a place you drive around in to lose your mind and/or religion on Black Friday, putting you into the proper disposition for the holiday season.
