Pronunciation: ayd and ree gret

Sentence: Mary meant well, but too often her attempts at helping people were unrequested and ended up as an aidandregret situation. This was true when her boyfriend, Dick, had that unfortunate zipper accident. Mary acted like a flyattendant and tried to help him with his seatbelt, which locked and failed to get into an upright position. He had trouble finding the nearest exit and as a result has been temporarily grounded. His new Zip Code is OOH NOO. Yes, there's something about Mary...

Etymology: Aid (help, assistance) & Regret (sadness associated with some wrong done or some disappointment;be sorry) Play on Aid and Abet (assist or encourage, usually in some wrongdoing)

Pronunciation: no sis tans

Sentence: When Dick got his, you know, name-organ, stuck in his zipper, well that Jane was nossistance at all. Her aid was not only not impeckerable, it left a track on his manhood forever. Should he survive this cock-up, he would add the word nossistance to his dickionary for future reference. See Dick, See Jane in the no-fly zone! Willie forgive her? How could he? It was a phallusy. He was a highly regarded Member of Parliament, after all. See Dick not run again...

Etymology: No (not in any degree or manner; not at all) & Assistance (the activity of contributing to the fulfillment of a need or furtherance of an effort or purpose) & insistence (the state of urgently demanding notice or attention)

Pronunciation: over ride

Sentence: Marjie was single-minded in her efforts to win the first aid officer of the month award. To that end she had resorted to overaiding her team mates. Now every paper cut was treated with iodine and bandaging, every headache with excessive and vigorous head massage, every little bump or bruise with lashings of arnica and warnings about occupational health and safety. Their protests were ignored, their bandaids stripped off and replaced with industrial strength bandage and some had even resorted to wearing balaclavas to avoid losing their hair.

Etymology: over ride (bully, browbeat, ignore protests) + aide (one who provides assistance)
