    An unorganized pile or collection of unrelated items.

    “The top drawer of the desk was a shlarmle of buttons, marbles, pens, and rubber bands.”

      I ran out of shlarmle homonyms to give. Can I offer you a nice “shleg” in these trying times?

      Then it’s almost onomatopeia at that point. Good take.

      It sounds like something someone would make up to pretend to be cultured.

      “What’s this stuff called.” "

      “It’s, uh, called the ‘shlarmle.’ It’s what they use to lure the shawarma onto the hook before they tire it out and finally reel it in.”
