Roblem

Any problem or incident with negative conotations which bears some relationship to Robert Parkinson. It is a commonly used word in the North West of England. Examples of its use in everyday conversations are:

"Thats a big roblem you've got there." "That roblems not going to go away any time soon." "A roblem shared is a roblem halved."

Creation of the Word

The word originated when two popular liturary figures from Britain were sharing a conversation about mining shafts in the 15th century. On figuring that there was indeed a problem with a lack of canaries to check for gas, it was suggested that there would be little problem if humans were used instead. The main suggestion for this task was Robert Parkinson. The two literary figures decided this would create a problem for the middle aged Robert Parkinson, and so combining the two words created a new 'hybrid' word to describe the whole event.
