Feelastoplast

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: fee las to plast

Sentence: Edwin was a big wuss when it came to pain. He could feelastoplast every hair pulled by its roots off his arm by the bandage.

She thought that the Human Race would have died out long ago if it were up to men like Edwin to give birth...

Etymology: Feel (perceive by a physical sensation, e.g., coming from the skin or muscles) & Elastoplast ( an elastic adhesive bandage for covering cuts or wounds)

Feelastoplast

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: fee lasto plast

Sentence: His wife Mary had bravely and quietly undergone 24 hours of painful labor before having a C-section to deliver their 12 pound son. She never cried or let the pain overcome her or distress those around her. The breathing from the Lamaze classes had certainly helped. Her husband Harry, on the other hand, carried on something fierce when the nurse had helped him remove the feelastoplast from his arm, where blood samples had been extracted. His screams were chilling and continued on long after the bandage was gone. This, as Mary's Mother had quickly pointed out, was why the men did not get pregnant and carry on the Human Race.

Etymology: Feel (Sense through touch;examine (a body part) by palpation) & Elastoplast (an elastic adhesive bandage for covering cuts or wounds)

Created by: jadenguy

Pronunciation: FALL ake ul

Sentence: Applying wax in ways that would make a sailor blush, Susan readied herself for the upcoming battle; her suit's responsiveness was proportinal surface area and sensor density so much that a few dozen square microns could be the difference between victory and absolute submission.

Etymology: Follicle + Ache

Depilatorture

Created by: ErWenn

Pronunciation: /dəˈpɪləˌtoɹtʃɝ/

Sentence: Perhaps the depilatorture of bandage removal could be lessened somewhat if we hired professional bikini-waxers to do the yank-job for us.

Etymology: From depilatory + torture

COMMENTS:

Yes, "yank-job" sounds like it could be dirty. But it's not. - ErWenn, 2007-06-06: 01:09:00

Oh, it's still dirty, all right. Maybe not in the context you've provided, but rest assured: use of the term predates this discussion by decades. - Clayton, 2007-06-06: 07:15:00

Those yanks were always a bit dodgy! - galwaywegian, 2007-06-06: 07:25:00

(covers virgin ears) - jadenguy, 2007-06-06: 12:24:00

As always, the best word here. - Osomatic, 2007-06-06: 13:22:00

You think my word is always the best? I guess I know who my usual one vote comes from. (Now I'm trying to think of a way of saying "thanks" that doesn't sound sarcastic after that remark.) - ErWenn, 2007-06-07: 01:16:00
