Alchohollyjolly

mrskellyscl

Created by: mrskellyscl

Pronunciation: al-co-hol-ly-jol-ly

Sentence: Kris was having an Alcohollyjolly Christmas and arrived at the office party lit like a Christmas Tree. Usually quiet and reserved, he was nervous about talking to people he didn't know, so he allowed himself some liquid courage beforehand. Showing up late and dressed in a Santa Suit, he hit the egg-nog right away. His coworkers laughed and dismissed the behaviour, but they drew the line when he began to offer the women there a chance to check out his "package" and go to his "sleigh" to see Rudolph. The next day he realized that it's probably not a good idea to get too jolly at a law firm's Holiday party when he exchanged his Santa Suit for a Sexual Harassment Suit.

Etymology: "A Holly Jolly Christmas,"(1962) -- a popular Christmas song sung by Burl Ives and composed by Johnny Marks, a Jewish composer who also penned "Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer," "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree," "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year." + alcohol: intoxicant

Saintnipped

Created by: mweinmann

Pronunciation: saynt - nipped

Sentence: Joshua got saintnipped this near before arriving at his family Christmas gathering. Uncle Clyde's 20 minute monologue about his illustrious post office career didn't bother him this time, nor did Aunt Sara's endless questions about when he was going to bring home a nice Presbyterian girl to meet the family. Actually, all of these things started to seem amusing to Joshua for a change.

Etymology: This word combines Jolly Old Saint Nick (or Santa Claus) with the past tense of Nip (a small drink of liquor).
