Wagenhalt
1. noun. the sensation one gets when one sees another human being making a fool of themselves without knowing it. you know you are experiencing wagnehalt when you are watching someone commit wagenhalt and your skin crawls and you want to look up at g-d, or the aliens, or whomever is watching us and say: “i am not like those humans. i am not like them.”
a person committing wagenhalt, commits it unintentionally.
when we were coming up the name for the feeling of wagenhalt-there was another name proposed that actually caused wagenhalt: “queerb-mps”. just saying queerb-mps causes wagenhalt.
history: in 1993 i was on tour with moby and we had been trying to find a definition for the sensation one gets when watching a stoned white guy at a party play airb-ss to pink floyd while staring sincerely at you. moby dared me to find a word for this feeling.
i had to take a tram from zoo garten to our hotel trying like mad to find a definition for wagenhalt. when someone on the tram pressed a b-tton and: wagenhalt appeared in big red letters at the front of the tram. it literally meant: “stop the wagon!”. eureka!
like: “when my mother tried to speak like an old jewish man to tell a joke-she gave me serious wägenhalt”
watching the face of my drunk white boyfriend at a party play airb-ss to pink floyd gives me serious “wagenhalt”.
“when my mother tried to speak like an old jewish man to tell a joke-she gave me serious wägenhalt”
