Pronunciation: rifrijərādər

Pronunciation: pil-frij

Sentence: Ralph didn't believe that what he did should be classified as pilfridge. He observed on a daily basis that people rarely ate all that they brought for lunch. He considered it below his status to pick through the trash after they tossed the remnants so preemptive raids only made sense. Sally certainly didn't NEED that big chunk of cheesecake. He was doing her a favor by shaving it down to a reasonable size.

Etymology: pilfer (steal - typically things of relatively little value) + fridge (a refrigerator) Derivative of pilferage

Pronunciation: sten/o/grab

Sentence: Always on the run, Steve would swing open the company fridge to stenograb something quick and filling. Didn't matter to him whose name was on what or how big it was written, "KEEP OUT! AND THIS MEANS YOU STEVE!" No. As he had "places to go and people to see," he felt justified in stenograbbing from the fridge at least three times a week. Unfortunately one day, someone filled a danish with chocolate ExLax to teach him a lesson. He now brownbags it daily. (true story from my working days...poor janitor...was out for two days...and NO I didn't do it...)

Etymology: stenograph: A shorthand character/ write in shorthand. grab: Snap up: get hold of or seize quickly and easily.
