Fearox
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: feer rox
Sentence: Xena,the Printses Warrior, lived in eternal fearox that all her electronic files would be wiped out, so she printed out copies of everything that came through her computer.

Her boss cited paper costs and space shortage as reasons to reduce her paper files. Her viewpoint was further proven when a fire started in the piles of paper Xena had stored behind her desk. Thanks to her, now none of them has any records, or jobs either!

Pronunciation: ream-DUN-dant

Etymology: ream (a measure of quantity for paper[500 sheets]) + (re)dundant; fax + (fix)ation; neuro(tic )+ (elect)tronic; disk + (dis)order
