Blackberry Collision
Pronunciation: 'blak-"ber-E ka-'li-zhan
Function: noun
1: a low-impact crash between two corporate rats in the rat race caused by the two not paying attention to where they are going, walking quickly down the hall with head down, feverishly reading and responding to email on a wireless Blackberry device.

I'm beginning to wonder if anyone ever walks down the halls at work with their head not buried in their Blackberry anymore. What's so freakin' important that it can't wait for me to return to my desk to answer in 15 minutes? Who knows, but I've become an unfortunate victim to the maddening madness, and have had a few close calls, narrowly avoiding a Blackberry Collision myself.
