Xenocturnalia

Created by: XMbIPb

Pronunciation: /ze-noc-tur-na-li-a/

Sentence: Sleeping on the same bed with Clarisse Starling is one thing, but this was above and beyond the XENOCTURNALIA that Daizy the Sheep signed up for when it joined agent Starling to be a true and faithful sidekick. As Hannibal Lecter smiled and whispered his customary: “Good evening Clarisse,” the poor lamb went silent and quietly left the bedroom.

Etymology: XENO - prefix that usually refers to an across-species process or act (e.g. XENOtransplantation; XENOgraft); NOCTURNAL - night-related, usually sleep related; -ALIA - a suffix reserved for a ritual of a sexually suggestive nature (e.g. SaturnALIA)

Goatobed

petaj

Created by: petaj

Pronunciation: go - to - bed

Sentence: No sooner had the infomercial finished, than Jerry had dialled the number to order his goatobed, for just $49.95. It was not just the chance to reduce his electricity bill, but the electric blankpet was now downright dangerous, the shleep had proved unsuccessful with his insomnia, and there was the prospect of home-made feta. He was hoping to phone his order in early enough to score a bonus pillow shampoodle to keep his ears warm at night. He just hoped that the duVET bills would not be too expensive. No longer would he be dogtired after his catnaps.

Etymology: "go to bed" + goat

Chuck thought a full-grown cow belonged on the range or in the freezer! Because of this mangeratrois, he would get charlie horses in his calves each night;hoof in mouth disease;hay fever;wake up Friesian each night because Elsie steered the covers off him and have cowlicks in his hair. Chuck was getting desperate to become the Loin King, the only thing that kept him going was the delicious, recurring dreams he had...mmmm, Porterhouse, Sirloin, Tenderloin, Rib Eyes, Beef Ribs, Filet Mignons, Chateaubriand,T-Bones, Prime Ribs, Ground Round, Rib Roasts, Rouladen, Salisbury, Standing Rib, Swiss Steak, Steak Tartare,Hamburger, Beef Stew...Cud this couple really live happily Heifer after?
