Regional synonyms

In Spain, an insufferably tiresome and persistent person who never reads the room. A pelmazo latches on, goes on and on about the same topic, and genuinely cannot tell that everyone around them checked out long ago. The word comes from "pelma," a dense sticky mass, which is exactly how it feels to be around one.
