Verboticisms

Created by: Tigger

Pronunciation: /LUST-bus-ter/

Sentence: Nothing could spoil the mood like Andrea's dog, Fang. Like a true 'lustbuster' he had an uncanny ability to sense a sexual advance coming on — Todd didn't even have to make a move toward her — all he had to do was just think about putting an arm around Andrea, and the flea-bitten cur would lift his head and start snarling at him.

Etymology: lust - intense sexual desire or appetite (Old Norse, lyst "desire") + buster - a person who breaks up something (Origin: 1825–35, Americanism; bust & -er)

Haven't we seen this before for a different definition? It's so good, twice is nice! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-13: 13:04:00

Nice word. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-13: 17:06:00

Doggone, Todd! - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-13: 19:36:00

I didn't recall it being used here before silveryaspen, but if it was I apologize. I was thinking of rhyming the word 'lust' and 'bust' and thought it kinda sounded like 'dustbuster'. - Tigger, 2008-02-14: 00:30:00

Apologies to Stevenson0 — he submitted 'Lustbust' for a similar definition in January. It must've been stuck in the back of my head... it was such a good word. - Tigger, 2008-02-21: 02:20:00

Pronunciation: auto - e - rot - a - stop

Sentence: Six weeks had passed since the arrival of the new baby and Aaron and Kelly were feeling up to an attempt at romance. The baby was recently fed, dry and sleeping peacefully. Aaron leaned in for a much needed inaugural kiss and just before his lips met Kelly's, the baby squawked. Aaron pulled away and held his breath. The crying stopped. Kelly waved him in for a second try and again the baby screamed, only louder. This time the baby could not be stopped. She screamed like a fire alarm for an hour. The exhausted parents consulted the owner's manual and discovered that their bundle of joy had come equipped with the often standard AUTOEROTISTOP alarm. This option was apparently not refundable.

Etymology: auto + erotica + stop

Out-of-gas-stop! Being stationary ... stopped at the station ... unable to move! Evokes so many images ... Wonderful Creation! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-13: 13:18:00

Hmmm... sounds like a poor design, but then again, it never runs out of gas, does it? - Tigger, 2008-02-14: 00:48:00

Pronunciation: vur - jen - a - tor

Sentence: Dad had a secret weapon “Butch” (aka the “vurgenator”). Once my sisters and I started to notice boys, dad handily rescued him from the local pound. Dad knew just the right moment to launch him into any room of the house before things got too romantic. Butch would stand in front of the lucky couple, teeth barred, growling until it was “hands off” all around…..

Etymology: The word starts with a play on the word virgin (pure and vestal modesty, a woman with no sexual experience) + Urge (to recommend or push, urge also means a strong desire to do something)+ the suffix (ator)(Latin: a suffix that forms masculine nouns from verbs. The nouns denote people who perform the action of the base verb as well as instruments, machines and similar things performing or used to perform the action of the base verb....used in words such as terminator, dictator or gladiator
