Pronunciation: /ahy-SEL-ley-shun-ist/

Sentence: They were out on a date, but Laura had seen Drew's icellationist behavior already tonight, and on previous dates, when he would talk with his friends for an hour everytime his cellphone rang. He should have been paying attention to her, shouldn't he? So, when he went to the bathroom, she didn't feel guilty at all about popping out the battery, sticking a piece of napkin across the contacts, and putting it back in. He would probably just think the battery went dead.

Etymology: Blend of: Isolationist - one who insulates themselves from ouside or foreign influences (from Latin, insula "island") + Cell - mobile telephone (shortening of 'cellular')

ExCELLent! (What? Someone had to say it...) Fits the definition perfectly. - Tigger, 2008-06-10: 10:30:00

You may joking about the surgery, but I bet this will be really happening within five years. And so the "me generation" will be ultimately be replaced by the "celphcentered generation". - wordmeister, 2008-06-10: 13:40:00

So very well constructed. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-11: 08:09:00

Pronunciation: dee CELL er ate

Sentence: Meetings with my boss are a giant pain in the neck and take way too long, because he always manages to decellerate the meeting at least once by answering his cell phone while we are meeting. And everyone is trapped just sitting there because he does the "wait a minute sign" with his index finger throughout the call. Sometimes he even decellerates things further by placing a call and then holding a three-way phone conversation about other business!

Etymology: cell + decelerate
