Instead of a fizure I'd rather have a sure fizz! Sex fizz is always better than a sex fizzle. Your creation sizzles! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-13: 13:29:00

Pronunciation: as salt pee ter

Sentence: Diane's Dad had developed a chaperone for his lovely nubile college daughter. It was their pet pitbull terrier, Fluffy, who was a natural assaultpeter when all the young men came to try and save her from the Martian invaders by surrendering her virginity. That line did not work in 1968 either...

Etymology: Assault (force (someone) to have sex against their will & Saltpeter (urban myth that sodium nitrate was used to curb male libido and therefore was introduced into the food of military and prisoners)

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

Perhaps some want to prevent us from paying "heartbalm" or even ending up in "Heartbreak Hotel!?" Nice word. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-13: 17:06:00

Cute word...you brake me up! - Nosila, 2008-02-14: 00:26:00
