Sentence: Even though Johnny had pressed it, Charlie had to follow suit because the funky Flea-like riff noise the irresistibuttion made was bloomin' marvellous.

Etymology: Oooh, lemme think now, might be from "irresistible" meaning "chocolate" and "button" meaning "type of mushroom" but sources are tight-lipped.

Sentence: Lolita was so pushcentric that she just went nuts if anyone else pushed the buttons. In the elevator, if someone else got there first, she pushed it too. It became complicated if she was playing a game where someone had to hit a timer button. When she was at her mom's house for dinner and mom hit the oven timer, Lolita pushed it too. She ended up in Therapy and diagnosed as a buttonphrenic with a hint of repressed anger...

Etymology: egocentric (selfcentered, push, centric (centered on)
