New York Lexicon Definition 6: Astoraphobia
Astoraphobia (noun)
- The sense of disorientation and anxiety that a New Yorker, accustomed to shopping in tiny corner bodegas, feels upon entering a large, brightly lit Walmart Supercenter
Not to be confused with Astoriaphobia, which is an unnatural fear of a quaint neighborhood in Queens.
