Word of the Day

Today's [belated] Word of the Day is an acronym:

A.D.D. (n.)


Altitude Deprivation Disorder, a condition experienced by individuals who grew up in a region known for hills and/or mountains, but who move to godforsaken lowland areas later in life for academic or professional reasons.

Symptoms include increased cynicism, revulsion at the local coastal climate, and strangely vivid dreams involving mountains and hillsides.

Ex: Last night I had a crazy dream!  The whole thing was like an HD slideshow of hills and mountains!
