Pronunciation: wash and tair

Sentence: Joe decided he really didn’t need a new watch – he had a cell phone. Where did that receipt for the watch go!? And, where did he leave his phone this time? Joe remembered he left his trousers on the floor, a sign indicating their need of a wash. He stealthily made his way downstairs in the dark to the basement laundrytank, opened the hatch and began rummaging through cool clothing tangles. Ah! there they were! Joe deftly slipped a cold hand into his trouser pocket, then, the other – no phone. However, he did pull out the damp washntears of what appeared to be his receipt! After careful washntearing apart the washntear, he had managed to see faded scrawls on paper tears, of what, he could not read. He looked at the new watch on his wrist: at least he had the time!

Etymology: washntear n or v. A play on the marketing term "washnwear". It is from "washnwear", material that purports to need no ironing after washing and "tear", to pull apart, ruin.
