Caleian slip

An analogue to the Freudian slip that involves a physical action. This action must be indicative of a subconscious preoccupation or habit.

Fabio and Felipe were hanging out. Fabio was eating an apple when all of a sudden the core slipped from his hand and fell to the floor. Felipe thus inferred a subconscious propensity of Fabio to litter on his own floor, creating a literal Caleian slip.
Named after the first man to observe and recognize one such "slip".
