A form of mulling (over) a particularly difficult (or gruelling) decision, concept, or thought. Muelling is often but not exclusively performed by any person with the surname: Mueller, Moeller, Miller, Müller, and/or Möller. Muellers (not to be confused with the subset of all people with the surnames Mueller or Müller (disambiguation)) often exhibit the following symptoms while muelling: muttering under one's breath, feverished pacing, leaning head-first into walls or tall objects, muffled sobbing and/or gasping, and repetetive uttering of nonsensical words, phrases, or numbers aloud. The root of the word can be traced back to when German millers (surname being Müller) would lead domesticated animals/hairy-ass-slaves (yes, both stresses of the phrase are correct) around a circular track, spinning a large stone wheel over a slab covered with grain to produce flour. As Milling is often considered the origin of the word mulling, it can be said that millers would mull while the mules "muled", leading to the true root "mule" (often misspelled as "muel"). Therefore, the most correct depiction (should) be of a mule laboriously turning a mill, sadly ignorant FUCKS just think about a fucking "mule pacing in its cell, as if in deep thought". Go figure.
