A Maurie is a person who will stand in a thoroughfare like a doorway or a hall, blocking people trying to get through who are busy attempting a task. They are oblivious to those people and their efforts. "The Maurie" also does not offer to help.
"Out of the way you big Maurie!" to someone standing in the doorway as people are setting up for a party. "Man, that Maurie could at least offer to help instead of blocking the doorway"
