both profoundly uninteresting in themselves and unlikely to benefit
anyone interesting even if solved. Often used in fanciful constructions
such as wrestling with a wombat. See also crawling horror, SMOP. Also

their notional mascot; the program's help file responded to “HELP WOMBAT”
with factual information about Real World wombats.
