Sentence: After his divorce, Brian was back on the market and ready to let everyone in the office know it. Not that they had any doubt, as you could smell his Drakkar Noir from several offices away. No one was brave enough to confront Brian and his annoysome grooming habits, for fear that he would lapse back into his self-pitying wallow.

Etymology: Combination of annoy and noisome: offensively malodorous

Pronunciation: bore-pong-er

Sentence: In her daily visits to the gym, Feclicia found nothing harder than to be polite in the presence of a boreponger. These ones, so dull in their enthusiasm for themselves and all they were doing to improve their lives...these ones who left such a foul stench in the midst of their comings and goings, left her no recourse, but to turn up the treadmill and walk faster. On the upside, she was reaching her weight loss goals ahead of time.

Etymology: from bore, an uninspiring person + pong, a stench Rhymes with "whoremonger" so it has that tone of low-life, twisted values, etc
