blob
Shapeless sticky mass
A blob is a shapeless mass or drop of something thick or viscous: a blob of paint, a blob of mustard.
The word suggests formlessness—something without defined edges or structure.
In computing, a blob (binary large object) is a collection of binary data stored as a single entity.
To blob is to form into shapeless masses, or in British slang, to lounge about doing nothing.
