Pronunciation: stor bit

Sentence: When Venus Houston went to the mall, she would drive around for hours to get the closest spot to her final destination. In other words, she would storbit around rows of vehicles before she came in for a landing in a spot that was not for the disabled/seniors/taxis/young parents. She figured that these storbits were her mission and why they called a free spot a parking "space". Houston, we have a problem...

Etymology: Store (a mercantile establishment for the retail sale of goods or services) & Orbit ( the (usually elliptical) path described by one celestial body in its revolution about another)
