Sentence: It was the morning after the big celebration and Dmitri woke in a puddle of his own sick. Worried that he may have defiled his prized laptop, he gingerly tapped the mouse and waited.

Pronunciation: ETHANOLOPRESSION

Sentence: As he machanically scrolled through about a dozen e-mails from giddy co-workers, the events of last evening began to take shape. Slowly, almost lazily, the dim suspicion of something being vaguely out of place began to yield to an outright dread as his gaze fell on the last message. That one was from Mr. Goldenshlock himself. The e-mail quoted Jake's own message to the entire company in which he described the etymology of the world "shlock" and advised Jake where he can pick up his last paycheck. Overcome by utter ethanolopression, Jake grabbed for the bottle with the last two drops of tequila and finished it off without thinking of the worm that stuck to his uvula.

Etymology: "Ethanol" - two carbon alcohol compound ubiquitous to all alcoholic beverages. "Pression" - root word from "depression. (Comment: the word was originally spelled with a hyphen: "e-thanolopression," which makes total sense given its original meaning. Through the ages, however, this was dropped by lazy spellers who felt it was beneath them to use the ring finger of their right hand to press an extra key [see: "ROFLMAO" "UR GR8" "BTW" and "BRB"]

Pronunciation: bak ee mayl ya

Sentence: Vinnie was not a guy who could hold his wine. The Riesling for this was because it was never his Sauterne to buy. Because he got free drinks, he could easily afford to drink more...way more than he should. He would often Mosel down to the local Wine Bar and order a few. After a few, he would Rhone back home and fire up his computer. It was then that he would send e-mails to everyone in his company, including his boss, and Pinot his thoughts and speculations on line. He crossed the Bordeaux when he said the Boss' sperm count was unusually Merlot and said it Shiraz been a while since the boss's wife, Sangria,had been living at their home. Vinnie blamed this on the cute Medoc in the local hospital where Sangria worked. Yes, if only Vinnie had not had his Bacchemailya, he could have been Sauvignon his job! Life is a Cabernet, Old Chum, only a Cabernet!

Etymology: Bacchanalia (used of riotously drunken merrymaking...named after Bacchus, Roman God of Wine & Intoxication) & E-mail (communicate electronically on the computer) & Ya (You, colloquially) & Back He Nail You (Revenge of your boss)

Pronunciation: Mail ah dee

Sentence: Mailanie Mailaprop, also known as Mrs. Mailaprop, loved pina coladas, especially the way mweinmann made them up and served them.
