Sentence: Derek woke up to a very uneasy feeling of fatemail the morning after the office christmas party. He, of course had had far too much to drink, but he couldn't have made a fool of himself by stripping naked and running round the grounds, no, he had to wait til he got home and send an email to all his co-workers telling them exactly what he thought of them. The worst thing was he told everyone his boss was an overbearing tyrant who only got the job because his father was a managing director of the company, he knew it wouldn't be long before he got to read this statement so he vowed that as soon as he sobered up he would go out and buy the paper and look through the situations vacant pages.

Etymology: Fate(the inevitable outcome of a person's life) + email(electronic mail) = Fatemail

Pronunciation: hayng - maled

Sentence: Riley really felt hangmailed this morning in more ways than one. First, there was the enormous headache and queasiness from his hangover. But most horribly, he felt a sense of impending doom over the emails he thought he remembered sending last night. Did he really tell off his boss, his girlfriend, his brother and his best friend all in the span of a few hours? He was afraid to open his inbox.

Etymology: Hang (kill by hanging, hang one's head in shame; to be menacing, burdensome, or oppressive; "This worry hangs on my mind") + Hang is the beginning of the word hangover. The last part of the word is mailed (past tense of mail, as in its too late)....you've been hanged with your mail!!

Super word and super etymology - silveryaspen, 2008-12-03: 17:06:00

Hangmailing sounds like a hanging offense...Good Word! - Nosila, 2008-12-03: 20:51:00
