Sentence: We kept at it, each having to be the last one to push, cycling faster and faster in a mad frenzy for prodomination, not really wanting it to end as we responded to each other almost in synch, until finally we both just stood there looking at each other, exhausted, far past the time the elevator reached our floor -- I think I am in love.

Sentence: Rick became enraged when he thought I was intentionally trying to oppress his need to obpress the buttons in the elevator. I didn't realize that me standing infront of the control panel would send him into such a tizzy. What made it worse was the twenty-three story ride in the small enclosed elevator and listening to him rant about how he needs to press the button. I am not sure whether to be sorry for him or appalled by his childish tantrum.

Etymology: obsession + press (a play on the word oppress)= obpress

Sentence: Irma was a pressdetout when it came to elevators. She had to press the buttons for each and every floor. It slowed down the elevator ride for many and caused people to get angry, but she could not help herself. She'd even press the button someone else had already lit up. Some people get the elevator, some just get the shaft...

Etymology: Press (to exert pressure or push on something) & De Tout (Fr: of everything, all) and Wordplay on Prostitute (someone who gets paid to push another's buttons, wink, wink, nod, nod)
