if he keeps it up he may end up cellibat

galwaywegian, 2008-06-10: 16:58:00
or the cellibut of a joke!

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-11: 08:10:00
Excellent

Celphcentered: /self-sent-ured/ Jack was so celphcentered that he had his cell phone surgically attached to his ear so that he wouldn’t miss a call. Etymology: cell + self centered Created by: Jabberwocky.

Comments on Celphcentered:

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

wordmeister, 2008-06-10: 13:40:00
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”.

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

Icellationist: /-ahy-SEL-ley-shun-ist-/ 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’) Created by: Tigger.

Very good!

Jabberwocky, 2008-06-10: 13:09:00
he really gave her the cold shoulder

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-11: 08:10:00
Great word

Celleezy: /sell ee zee/ Celldon was one Celleezy person. Whenever he took his latest girlfriend, Cellcilia out, he would repeatedly answer the calls he got from his future girlfriends Cellectra or Cellvia on his cell and talk to them for ages, in the company of Cellcilia. Needless to say, Cellcilia, would get upset and feel ignored, particularly when his chats turned to a more graphic nature. He often wondered why these women became so cellective and never wanted to go on a second date. Oh well, plenty more fish in the sea to cellect from… That is until one day he answered such a call in front of his wife, Cellda…
It took the doctors three hours to surgically remove that cellphone from
Celldon’s cellected orifice. And yes, he can hear her now. Etymology: cell (cellular phone) & sleazy (tawdry, lacking class, morally degraded, of poor quality) Created by: Nosila.

Down with celleezy celluts!

Jabberwocky, 2008-06-10: 13:33:00
song of the day “Cellcilia, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence daily”

Nosila, 2008-06-10: 20:56:00
Or “Cellebrate good times, come on…” Oh no, now they are both in my head!

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-11: 08:16:00
You got me going now: ‘operator could help me place this call..”

DEFINITION: n.A state of irrational irritation, which inevitably develops whenever you work or live with someone whose annoyingly bad habits happen to mirror your own.

VERBOTICISMS: (Invented words created by the Verbotomy Writers)

Mirritation: /mir-i-tey-shun/ Mirritation occurs when you get angry at your kids for copying and doing something stupid that you just did. Etymology: MIRRITATION – noun – from MIRROR + IRRITATION Created by: Stevenson0.

Comments on Mirritation:

Tigger, 2008-06-09: 02:36:00
Good word. It could also be used to describe how you feel when you’re having a ‘bad hair day’.

Mustang, 2008-06-09: 02:49:00
Mirritation reflects poorly on ones character.

Jabberwocky, 2008-06-09: 09:20:00
terrific

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-10: 05:26:00
And you have all those little mirror-images of yourself running around; great word.

Habituhate: /Habb-it-u-hayt/ Gemma knew that she had some annoying little quirks, but the worst thing was her flatmate seemed to have picked some of them up since she moved in just over six months ago. The thought of putting up with it for the next six months made her feel very habituhate indeed. Etymology: Habit(a regular tendency to do something.) + Hate(An intense dislike) =Habituhate Created by: TJayzz.

Comments on Habituhate:

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-10: 05:24:00
Nice looking word, cleverly blended.

Apeability: /ay pa bil it ee/ Aperil had an annoying apeability. Whomever she worked with, she could ape their bad habits within a very short time to the point where it annoyed the original offenders. This would explain why she had held 14 jobs in the past year and was working towards number 15.
When first interviewed, she had the apeability of mirroring those traits in her prospective employers which made them think they were hiring in their own image. But after a very short while, those bad habits her employers hated in themselves would soon manifest themselves in Aperil. Like the fact she enjoyed aperitifs and apepetizers at 12:00 noon; she never apeologized when she made an error; the fact that she had a big apetite; she miswrote apepointments; her apepearance left a lot to be desired and she did not apepreciate her employers. Aperil worked as an Apeprentice Apepraisor with the Ape Apeprehension Apepeal Apepellate Apeperratus. Etymology: ape (someone who copies the words or behavior of another or imitate uncritically and in every aspect) & ability (the quality of being able to perform; a quality that permits or facilitates achievement or accomplishment) & capability (an aptitude that may be developed) Created by: Nosila.

Comments on Apeability:

Tigger, 2008-06-09: 02:31:00
How apepropraite… a very ‘punny’ story.

Mustang, 2008-06-09: 02:47:00
Sounds like Aperil just enjoyed monkeying around. Good one!

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-10: 05:23:00
Seems like gorilla warfare to me. Nice word; clever sentence.

Nosila, 2008-06-10: 20:57:00
Thanks for gibbon me a compliment!

Mimirkry: /-MIM-urk-ree-/ Cheryl would sometimes sing to herself when listening to her iPod — not loud enough to bother anyone (or so she thought). But when Yvonne, her roommate, would do the same thing but much louder, Cheryl was sure, and out-of-key, it was just so irritating. And since Yvonne and Cheryl liked almost all of the same songs, it was even worse, because it was just a tuneless mimirkry of the same songs Cheryl found herself singing along to. Etymology: Mimicry – the act of mimicking; imitative behavior (from Greek, mimikos “of or pertaining to mimes”) + Irk – to irritate, annoy, or exasperate (from Middle English, irken “to grow tired, tire”) Created by: Tigger.

Comments on Mimirkry:

Jabberwocky, 2008-06-09: 09:20:00
very nice – fits the definition vry well

Nosila, 2008-06-09: 20:18:00

DEFINITION: v. To compensate for lack of love, attention and/or sexual favors by buying things, lots of things. n. An object purchased to compensate for sexual dawdling.

VERBOTICISMS: (Invented words created by the Verbotomy Writers)

Celibaspree: /-SEL-uh-buh-spree-/ Donald had now been married for six years — the ‘honeymoon’ period was long over — and his wife no longer looked for excuses to spend time with him; quite the opposite, in fact. Having little else to occupy his attention, he spent most of his spare time in the garage restoring his old Mustang. Once he got into it, he found all sorts of extra parts, tools and accessories he could buy for the car. Donald went on a celibaspree, buying new spoilers, chrome valve covers, and new seats for Rose’s birthday… Rose was the name of Donald’s Mustang, not his wife, (he’d been so busy with the car, he’d forgotten his wife’s birthday this year). Etymology: Celibacy – abstention from sexual relations (from L. cælibatus “state of being unmarried”) + Spree – a period, spell, or bout of indulgence; e.g. a shopping spree (alteration of Fr. esprit “lively”) Created by: Tigger.

good word.

Securitsatiation: /se-cure-i-ti-say-shee-ay-shun/ Mark’s love life wouldn’t have been fulfilled without the securitisatiation he experienced on a shopping spree. He was grateful for the wide variety of orgasmic produce now available at the local supermarket. Etymology: secure (purchase) + satiate (satisfy) + securitization Created by: Jabberwocky.

TJayzz, 2008-06-05: 19:58:00
good word!

OZZIEBOB, 2008-06-05: 23:46:00
Good word- experts say one needs security in marriage.

Dotcompensate: /dot com pen sate/ Eddie lived a hermitic existance in a basement bedroom in his parents’ house.
He had no life other than that lived through his best friend, his computer.
He called her Della, because she was a Dell, the romantic fool. Everyday he showered her with things he bought for her on e-bay and amazon and every imagineable shopping website. A fancy mousepad here, a scanner there, software programs to last her a lifetime. In other words, he dotcompensated for the fact that she was the only female who responded to him. Oh sure, sometimes she would freeze up if he had spoken harshly to her or she’d need her hard drive tweaked. To show his affection, he would go straight to a new site and order her something nice to make her happy. Yes, Eddie was one lonely geek, who’s mother ever dispared of becoming a granny! Etymology: dot.com (A company whose business is based around a website) & compensate (adjust or make up for;make up for shortcomings or a feeling of inferiority by exaggerating;the act of furnishing an equivalent thing in the place of another) Created by: Nosila.

Today’s definition is inspired by the scene in Sex and the City where a sex-starved Samantha fills her Mercedes with boxes from Gucci ~ James

Ahaha – I just read this after I created my word…seems like we’re both on the same thought track!!!!
