Stunned by the way you take one word and tweak it with a letter, or a few, and have a great verbotomy to fit the definition. Today's is Exceptional. - silveryaspen, 2008-12-05: 15:15:00

Lustbuster
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)

lol! Excellent choice of words Tigger. :) - Dougalistic, 2008-02-13: 04:40:00
Simple but effective. - ErWenn, 2008-02-13: 10:13:00
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

Maidenfence
Created by: ErWenn
Pronunciation: /ˈmeɪdṇˌfɛns/

COMMENTS:
K/nightly sword play! (fencing) Evokes the romaticism of a past age of chivalry. Very nice verbot! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-13: 13:09:00

Autoerotistop
Created by: picabomama
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
----------------------------
COMMENTS:
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

Created by: Dougalistic
Pronunciation: Row-man-tee-chewed
