Pronunciation: selsentər

Sentence: Joey is completely cellcentered. If his phone rings, he*s on it like a hawk on a mouse. It doesn*t matter what*s happening or who he*s with, the phone gets all his attention. It*s gotten to the point where his girlfriend called to break up with him despite the fact that they were in the same room. Of course she had to leave voicemail because he was already on a different call.

Etymology: Cell (a telephone with access to a cellular radio system) + centered (in the center) A play on self-centered
