Verboticisms

Pronunciation: dee test pat turnd

Sentence: Each spring Joe and Melba had a tv marathon and picked an ancient tv series to watch in it's entirety for that weekend. After the sluggish weekend, which also meant little physical activity and way too much junk food, they went into a guilty funk of self-loathing...they were detestpatterned. This spring's weekend was no exception, when they watched the entire "Beverly Hillbillies" series, black & white and then coloured versions. By Sunday night, they had strong Ozark accents, had eaten possum in many forms, drank Granny's moonshine (rhematis' medicine) and carved their pool cues into pot passers for when they sat at the fancy eating table in the billiards room. Joe also learned how to play "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" on his fiddle! Well, doggy...

Etymology: Detested (disliked intensely; felt antipathy or aversion towards) & Test Pattern (A geometric chart transmitted by a television station to assist viewers in adjusting reception...since tv was not 24-7 in the old black & white tv days, the test pattern came on a while before the show started and was the last thing you saw on after the National Anthem played...boy does my age show!)

Pronunciation: rērəneθōgər

Sentence: Having spent their entire weekend watching 4 full seasons of My Name Is Earl, Bob and Bill feel like they have been attacked by the rerunnethogre. They have somehow absorbed components of the characters from the show into their personalities. Despite their suburban upbringing, they feel as if they live in a trailer park and drive an old beater. Last time they did something like this it took Bob almost a week to stop limping after watching just one season of House. DAMN YOU, NETFLIX!

Etymology: rerun (a program, event, or competition that occurs or is run again) + ogre (a man-eating giant) runneth over [from the Bible: My cup runneth over (having more than enough of something)]

Pronunciation: tee ara thon

Sentence: After Zack and Helena watched an entire season of Toddlers and Tiaras, they were revolted, but like a messy traffic accident, could not stop looking. The tiarathon made them hate hairpieces, stage mothers/fathers, lacy bobby socks, dimples and $10,000 poofy dresses worn by tiny Southern belles, destined to become future stars on the "Housewives of CornPone Childporn, USA".

Etymology: Tiara (crown-like headpiece, diadem) & Marathon (any long and arduous undertaking; named for the ancient Greek footrace)
