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
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

Freneticfutation
Created by: Nuwanda
Pronunciation: rhymes with genetic mutation
Sentence: Barb was so tired of cooking after the big feast, that she started dining out every night. She would bring leftovers home and put them in the fridge quickly so as not to have to see the developing compost pile that awaited her. When the smell of the leftover Chinese food, mingled with the rancid lunchmeat and the liquified cucumber finally escaped the confines of the fridge, she tied a scarf around her face with some dryer sheets tucked in the fold, donned elbow length gloves and braced her self for the freneticfutation that almost convinced her to abandon her home.
Etymology: Based on genetic mutation, but changed to frenetic to imply a crazy pace and futation to get the idea of food in there.
----------------------------
COMMENTS:
The vivid images this invokes makes it hard to keep this one down. People often ignore the "liquified cucumber"...my least favorite discard.
Great story, Nu! - metrohumanx, 2008-12-01: 14:07:00
eww gross, but a great word!! - mweinmann, 2008-12-02: 10:23:00

Putridish
Created by: thegoatisbad
Pronunciation: pyu-tre-dish
Sentence: Not prone to scientific queries, the closest Kimberly came to having an interest in science was wanting to know exactly how long she could wait to clean out her fridge. "Just, hypothetically, let's say I have a friend," she started "with several putridishes in her refrigerator. Will those contaminate other things in her refrigerator?" Zinnia, who had minored in botany, answered "It all depends on the cultures. I would worry about growing mycotoxins." This answer terrified Kimberly.
Etymology: Putrid (rotten, foul) + Dish (plate of food) Sounds like "Petri Dish"
----------------------------
COMMENTS:
And, whenever I try a bad recipe I manage to create a putridish to save in the frige (out of guilt) and then eventually throw away - good word. - splendiction, 2010-04-21: 19:46:00

Festericed
Created by: TJayzz
Pronunciation: Fest-er-ie-st
Sentence: When Julie returned from her two week holiday in Greece, she noticed a foul smell eminating from her kitchen. Realising it was coming from the fridge, she gingerly opened the door. To her horror, there, lying on a plate was a thick lump of green mould she wasn't sure what it started out as but she had a funny feeling that she had forgotten to throw away the leftover curry that she had half eaten the night before she went away. The whole thing had festericed into a completely new life form. She knew she had to get rid of it quick before it began to form some sort of intelligence, so she scooped it into a bag and threw it into the incinerator.
Etymology: Fester(of food,become rotten, perish) + Iced(chilled. cool)

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!
Thank you Bananabender! I was definitely inspired by your words -- the evil-minded fridge is brilliant! ~ James
