An excellent new word to add to the vocabulary, and one I think all of us ROOTers can identify with :-)
“Tsundoku,” the Japanese word for the new books that pile up on our shelves.
Do you think it's a word that should be adopted into English? I'd vote yes! See more by following the link, below.

Also, I can think of a couple of candidates for a Backpfeifengesicht.
EDIT: I see that I'm late to the tsundoku party! I should have done a search before posting! I'll leave this up, though, both as a testament to my own lack of foresight and as I couldn't see another link to the Open Culture site, which is quite interesting.
