Pronunciation: sub doo fuss

Sentence: Earl thought his vigilance in keeping his daughter, Mona, locked up was a way of saving her from herself and all the evils in the world. But he was actually a subduefuss and his obsessive overprotectiveness forced her to rebel and run away. Yes, tired of the suppressive lifestyle her father led as an ex-con biker carnival worker, Mona ran off at the tender age of 29 to become a librairian and church choir member. Earl's street cred took a dive!

Etymology: subdue (hold within limits/controls) & doofus (person with poor judgment) & fuss (worry about too much)

Pronunciation: Muh-ther-Smuth-erd

Sentence: At home, I play a game of "Mother, May I" constantly. Due to my mom's fears, she has ruined the game, by making her answer always the same: "Mother says you may not!" Mother says I can't join the school band, for she doesn't want me playing around. Mother says I can't join science club, chess club, or a bridge club because she doesn't want me going to the clubs at night! Mother says I can't play baseball, volleyball, football, or basketball. She says "Who knows what you'll catch playing with all those balls!" It is nice to be mothered, but I need help. I've become a none in this motherhouse. You've heard of Mother Hubbard. Mine is MotherSmuthered.

Etymology: Mother and Smothered and a play on Mother Hubbard = MotherSmuthered. Mothered: loved, cared for, and protected Smothered: overly suppressed
