Definition

Someone who leaves you with the same disappointed, burnt-out feeling you get from accidentally inhaling the ashes at the bottom of a bowl. These are the people who take more than their share, show up late, or generally embody the essence of a social buzzkill.

Example Usage

Brad showed up to the potluck empty-handed but left with three containers of leftovers—total ash bowl move.
