Writing Challenge: Invent a word (Malldiot)

Have you also noticed a new trend of this hectic era? Why to spend time outside in the nature? People lost their minds and prefer hanging around at the malls on the weekends. You can see the teenagers, families with the kids, or single ladies. I doubt, if there exists a word for this special human kind (maybe shopaholic but I find it a bit different). My word might be rude because it is a mixture of the words Mall and Idiot, however I really despise this habbit, so that's why I spiced it up by my anger :)

Malldiot [ˈmɑːldijət], Noun
- a person, who spends almost every weekend at the malls and considers it their lifestyle.

Sentence example:
Willson's family is full of the malldiots because their own kids don't remember a weekend they spent in the forest.

  • I think many of you got this wrong. The definition of the word is not "being in the mall and spend money",  it is about hanging out in the mall to spend their spare time there instead of going out to the nature for example. 

  • Don't worry, Luci. I had been cured with my awareness. ...... lol...

    The dangerous thing of being a malldiot is.... buying something that we didn't intend to buy. It drains our pockets. Woman! :D

  • Well, it's not bad if the idiots are all gathered together in one place as the same flock of sheeps. It helps me to avoid them hahaha 

    My sentence: "The more these 'malldiots' spend their time in the mall, the less I find them in my way!"

  • @Luci

    It's more convenient to buy things via the Internet than in the mall. She seems to be so hooked on online shopping.
