Furtfoodling
Created by: fantomex
Pronunciation: furt-food-ling
Sentence: So I decided to use my skills of 'furtfoodling' to avoid any unwanted distractions.
Etymology: 'furt' is taken from furtively (meaning trying not to be seen), and 'food' is from the obvious word food, and 'ling' is added to make it a verb. So you can clearly see the combined meaning, and this covers the definition well.

Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: eet ray der
Sentence: Jocelyn was an accomplished eat-raider.

When she picked out the consomme instead of the boullion, she ran back to make a stock exchange and pointed to it with her index finger. Since you had to pay for the food, she was often a broker eat-raider. Yes, Jocelyn was a stealthy eater.
Etymology: Eat (take in solid food) & Raider (someone who takes spoils or plunder or a corporate investor who intends to take over a company by buying a controlling interest in its stock and installing new management)& e-trader ( someone who purchases and maintains an inventory of goods to be sold on the electronic stock market).
