Verboticisms

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: re fren emee

Sentence: When Janet met Brad again at the reunion, she realized he had become a refrenemy. He not only hated her hair and her dress style, (She was sure the invitations stated retro 80's look, so as people could recognize each other) but he also was still an older but more judgmental geek. It was when she caught him making out with Sue (she of the Just Sue Me! fame) that she realized he was just "Desparately Seeking Susan" and not really into the fact that she was Madonna's personal assistant! Loser!

Etymology: Re-friend (a person with whom you are re-acquainted) & Enemy (a hostile individual, not in your support group)

Etymology: word play with rebound...but of course... :)

Sentence: When Cyndi went to her high school reunion, she still dressed in her best 80's attire. Of course everyone else had dressed in modern day fashions, including the guy she always had a crush on...Seymour Modes. Seymour was now a Magazine Editor and tres moderne! As she later told her geeky friends who were too scared to go to the reunion, she and Seymour had a relationship whereby they were each's lackquaintance. As the night and free booze wore on, they found a cozy corner to re-lackquaint themselves. Luckily it worked out for them. They are now an item and she writes a great retro column for his magazine and he dresses more and more with an eighties influence. Their acquaintenceship no longer lacks anything!

Etymology: Lack ( the state of needing something that is absent or unavailable; be without) & Acquaintance (a relationship less intimate than friendship;personal knowledge or information about someone or something)

Pronunciation: gahn-AIR-uh-kwest

Sentence: Dorian began his GONERAQUEST one gray evening when he got spammed by Classmates.com...first he had to ressurectify their names from the dim recesses of his faulty membanks. Using Anywho and Google, he reanimated the memories of his troubled youth and e-mailed the lot. All the yammering yokels of yesteryear were at the reunion, including his old crush, Peggy- whose orange hair erupted like a lava flow from a long-dormant volcano. Quickly quaffing quantities of questionable punch, a dismayed Dorian deduced that his GONERAQUEST had gone awfully awry. It all came rushing back to him like a hot kiss at the end of a wet fist. He never really liked these people in high school, and the years had not been kind to them as they ripened into paunchy portraits of their former selves. Dorian schlumped home and took a fatal dose of repentathol - never to GONERAQUEST again.

Etymology: GONe+ERA+QUEST=GONERAQUEST.....GONE:possessed with a strong attachment or a foolish or unreasoning love or desire-from past participle of go.....ERA:fixed point in time from which a series of years is reckoned; a memorable or important date or event; especially : a period in the history of a person-Late Latin aera, from Latin, counters.....QUEST:an act or instance of seeking; a chivalrous enterprise in medieval romance usually involving an adventurous journey and an alcohol-drenched pseudofestival -Middle English, from Anglo-French queste.
