Shotmail
Created by: libertybelle
Pronunciation: shaht-mayl
Sentence: It was utterly clear to Bonnie that her ex-husband was sending out emails from his shotmail account last night as she waded through his misspellings proclaiming that he was so sorry they ever split up and that he was sorry that she was such a bitch to him.

She supposed, however, that it still beat him drunk dialing her at 3 am.
Etymology: shot - a small portion of liquor + Hotmail - a well known site for email.
