Egony: /Ä“gÉ™nÄ“/ Dwight was in egony. He and all of the managers in his division had received the e-memo from the big boss. He had meant his commentary about the stupidity of this newest scheme to go to a fellow manager who shared his views but realized as he hit send that he had accidentally clicked “reply all”. Not only would this get back to the boss but his detractors amongst the managers would have the evidence of the source of his career implosion. Etymology: e-mail (messages distributed by electronic means from one computer user to one or more recipients via a network) + agony (extreme physical or mental suffering) Created by: artr.
Accidentemail: /acks-uh-DENT-ee-mayl/ Maynard was dismayed when he realized he’d sent yet another accidentemail filled with typos, false information and way too much personal information about himself and his desires. Etymology: Blend of accident and email. A play on the word ‘accidental’. Created by: Mustang.

Good one!
Clickintheass: /click-in-thee-ass/ Luke didn’t know what possessed him to Google and then email not one, but several of his former girlfriends. Maybe it was the rum. Regardless, he came to regret his clickintheass when we woke up the next morning and saw several scathing responses that would have been howlers (a la Harry Potter) had the technology existed. Etymology: Variation on kick in the ass Created by: Nuwanda.

Interfret: /in-ter-fret/ Having spotted Tiffany’s email on Loretta’s Blackberry while she got up to get her Latte, Josh made a point to memorize it. Tiffany was the girl of his dreams, though to her he didn’t exist.
Later that night while on the computer, just to see what it felt like, he put in her email addy and began typing as if they had just spent the most passionate evening together. He got so into it that when done, instead of hitting the X to delete, he hit SEND out of habit! He went into instant interfret, began sweating profusely and decided he would claim it was just an assignment due in his psychology class, and thank Tiffany for helping him with his grade. Her “reaction of disgust” “was just the A” he was “looking for,” he said in response to her disgusted email. Etymology: internet + fret Created by: lumina.

Coincidentally, as he was in the throes of his interfret, Tiffany entered the coffee shop, engaged with her Blackberry. Josh’s seat became a puddle of sweat. She took him by the arm and walked to the back of the shop, where the restrooms were located, and for the next five minutes strange sounds emanated from that region.metrohumanx, 2008-10-30: 13:47:00
