Roared with laughter ... evokes so many thoughts from given a whole new meaning to being Turksih or being a Turkey ... or even if there's a planet Turkey named after the country ... or it's people? This word boggles the imagination! I like it! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-01: 08:45:00

A great word - im sure ET looks nothing like the image you created!! - sean30, 2008-02-01: 15:05:00

Salamonella

Created by: bananabender

Pronunciation: suh-LAHM-mun-el-uh

Sentence: It was hiding behind the egg carton festering technicolours, foul odours, and a plan of escape. "I'm not supposed to be in here" it thought, "I'm a hot salami and it's way too cold in here for me." It waited... and waited... and festered... and festered. She opened the door, light flooded the room, warm air rushed in like a breath of spring and it knew that this was the moment to seize the day! Salamonella was born and salamonella will reign supreme! Until the frankfurtenstein develops grandiose ideas, that is.

Etymology: salami + salmonella

Fridgeridoo

Created by: OZZIEBOB

Pronunciation: frij-uh-ree-DOO

Sentence: When Bob and Roxie left for a six month holiday in The Outback, nothing could prepare them for the fridgeridoo that would await them on their return. For in their hurry to get on the road, they forgot to take from their fridge all sorts of beggar's banquets, including hashmagundi, spagbol, scrambled cackleberries and, worst of all, some very ripe durians.

Etymology: Blend of reFRIDGERATOR & DOO: sh*t in its slangly, general pejorative sense. HASHMAGUNDI: "everything & anything" kind of stew. DURIAN: Foul smelling, (perhaps the worst) but delicious tasting fruit from Indonesia.

Concoctopus

Created by: Maxine

Pronunciation: cun cawk tuh puhs

Sentence: Sammy dared not even glance at the fridge's bottom shelf, for by smell alone she could tell that sprawled across the glass platform, as colorful as a chameleon, as hostile as a Martian, and as appealing as an unchanged diaper--indeed, as vicious as the Great Khan himself--there lay a concoctopus.

Etymology: concoct, octopus

Fridgremlins

Created by: Tigger

Pronunciation: /frij'-grem-linz/

Sentence: Brenda could hear something moving in there (in the Frigidaire) and when she peeked, and the light came on, she first heard a fierce squeal (or perhaps that was just the squeaky door), and then she was sure she saw fridgremlins scurrying behind the milk carton and the leftover casserole dish. She slammed the door shut and ran to find the number to the exterminator.

Etymology: fridge - shortening of refrigerator (from Latin, frīgus "cold") + gremlins - small, mischievous creatures (popularized by the RAF as a cause of mechanical failures; possibly from Old English, gremman "to anger, vex" + -lin of goblin) Don't get them wet!

Excremaggotia

Created by: OZZIEBOB

Pronunciation: eks-kr-MAG-go-shuh

Sentence: When Bob and Roxie left for a six month holiday in The Outback, nothing could prepare them for the fridgeridoo that would await them on their return. For in their hurry to get on the road, and Roxie's penchant for plastic- wrapping last night's leftovers, the spagbolia slowly, but surely, turned into excremaggotia.

Etymology: Blend of EXCREMENT: putrid matter, dung, ordure; MAGGOT: grub, fly larva & IA: suffix forming names of countries, diseases, flowers, asf.

metrohumanx ....A words which NEEDS no introduction. - metrohumanx, 2008-12-01: 01:07:00

metrohumanx Exquisitely revolting.The zenith of repugnantisms.Truly unique, O-Bob! - metrohumanx, 2008-12-01: 01:27:00

revolting indeed!! - Jabberwocky, 2008-12-01: 13:04:00

metrohumanx I'm going to have to vote for this word based solely on it's nauseating construction. Even without sentence or etymology, it sounds sickening. You almost don't want to know the definition. Brrrrrrrr! - metrohumanx, 2008-12-01: 14:13:00

Powerful word. It makes me want to barf and scream ... especially on the second syllable! How can a verbotomy be so excellent but still be so nauseating? - silveryaspen, 2008-12-01: 17:41:00

Good one, Bob...you maggot my vote! - Nosila, 2008-12-01: 21:58:00

Great definition. Really motivated and inspired some of the funniest sentences and verboticisms of the week! :-)

Great cartoon James! The details are a hoot... the bite out of the drumstick, stuffed olives as eyes, and wings mutated into a two-headed monster. Funny! You've inspired me to submit more ideas for you to develop and take to the nth degree!
