Pronunciation: B'you-fon-ik

Sentence: Phoebe's "sickies" had her down for just about every known, not so well known and outright fictitious illness and disease known to mankind. Playing the buphonic patient had become second nature to her at the start of the working week where she'd always manage to find a "cure" by the weekend. As Monday rolled around too soon, she was about to let her boss know that after calling out the doctor this morning she had been diagnosed with a rather nasty case of toe-stub and needed to rest until Friday evening.

Etymology: Bubonic plague: A rather nasty outbreak of spots. Actually, they seem to look more like boils that cover the whole body and eventually turn you to mush. Phony: not sincere or not real.

Pronunciation: hook kee kon dree ah

Sentence: Mala Dee had called her boss describing her dreadful symptoms and the fact that her doctor had told her to take 2 weeks off to avoid spreading infection to her co-workers. Her boss was sympathetic, but any doubts he had about her lengthy illness were brought home as he watched the closing ceremonies of the Olympics from Vancouver and saw a shot of Mala dancing around with the Team Canada athletes. It was then he realized that she had only been suffering from the hookychondria, Gold Fever, like the rest of the country. GO, CANADA, GO!

Etymology: Hooky (truancy; failure to attend) & Hypochondria (chronic and abnormal anxiety about imaginary symptoms and ailments)

Pronunciation: soo-doe-sim-PATH-oh-jen-IP-yule-ate

Sentence: Jeff really liked his job. However, when the first pale greens of springtime burst gloriously from the earth, he unfailingly became bedridden with a mysterious PSEUDOSYMPATHOGEN. Folk wisdom decreed that the only effective treatment for this stubbornly quixotic malady was to CALL IN SICK. One could predict with certainty that when the first forsythia of April reared it's yellow head, Jeff would call the boss and PSEUDOSYMPATHOGENIPULATE her into granting him a "sick" day. Sick of working, perhaps - but not too ill to crawl to the park and ogle the rollerbladers who were basking in the shower of benign photons that heralded the first warm weekday and incidentally contributed to the spread of that productivity-killing practice known as PSEUDOSYMPATHOGENIPULATION. (cough cough) ....I may need another day...I'm still a bit under the weather.

Etymology: PSEUDO+SYMPathy+pATHOGEN+manIPULATE= PSEUDOSYMPATHOGENIPULATE .....PSEUDO:false.....SYMPATHY:an affinity, association, or relationship between persons or things; from Greek sympatheia, from sympathēs having common feelings.....PATHOGEN:a specific causative agent (as a bacterium or virus) of disease.....MANIPULATE:to manage or utilize skillfully b: to control or play upon by artful, unfair, or insidious means especially to one's own advantage;from French, from manipuler to handle an apparatus in chemistry, ultimately from Latin manipulus.

I love it when I come in on the 39th step, and then slowly rise in the rankings like a blob of rancid thirty weight.....only to bob just below the surface, colliding randomly with other verbotomists like viscous ectoplasm in an ancient lava lamp. - metrohumanx, 2008-10-01: 13:48:00
