Sentence: Ralph is always looking for the perfect parking spot. He is constantly seeking curbvana. Like a vulture circling some roadside carrion he will stalk shoppers as they returned to the parking lot. Some shoppers are so un-nerved by him creeping along behind them that they will forget where they parked or will return to the Mall to have a security guard escort them to their cars.
Etymology: curb (a stone or concrete edging to a street or path) + nirvana (a state of perfect happiness; an ideal or idyllic place)
