Regional synonyms

Something extremely boring, tedious, or unbearable in Spain. A coñazo is whatever makes you watch the clock every two minutes: a pointless meeting, a painfully slow movie, or someone who will not stop talking. Not to be confused with a mild inconvenience, a coñazo is genuinely soul-draining.
