Earnacular: /urn ak yool ar/ After the Stanley Cup final which saw his team lose by 25 to 0 to the Toronto Maple Leafs, the team captain was interviewed on national television. Big Bobby NoFrontTeeth, who’s annual salary was 18 million dollars, was analytical about his team’s loss to the only team who had not won since 1967.

In his earnacular, he figured their loss was due to the fact that the other team got more goals.

Donkingcoherence: /don king co HEER ens/ The coach’s donKingcoherence was legendary. Some of the things he said were so incomprehensible that they were quoted on “humorous sayings” websites.

Ptomainaters: /to mayn ay ters/ Sarah entered her kitchen with trepidation. He was back, just like he promised the last time he had visited and terrorized her. She knew he was back because of the putrid odor. This time, he wasn’t alone, he had brought reinforcements who were as evil as he. The sour milk, that very old potato salad, green meat and other items that would need a CSI Trace Analysis to determine their origin were pillaging her fridge. The minute her fridge door opened, it’s vile rotting scent permeated the whole house. A mere disinfectant bath was not going to be enough to rid her this time of the Ptomainaters. She was going to have to get an Electroluxorcism or have an Amanadectomy to get the vile appliance out of her home. As the stainless steel coffin for the Ptomainaters was removed, Sarah heard that voice with the strange Austrian accent saying again, “Hasta La Vista, Baby…I’ll be back!” Etymology: Ptomaine (serious food poisoning due to bacterial putrefacation) & Terminators (someone who exterminates) & Ate (eaten) Created by: Nosila.

Communenebreation: /kom myun ee nee bree ayshun/ Bud Nonweiser had a deadline for 6 am and a love of hops in their liquid form. He had already written many draftbeerdrafts of his report for work, but the more he drank, the worse his editing and decision making skills became. After a brief doze, face imprinted with his keyboard, he decided that his current drafts (both the beer and the report) were tasty and refreshing. His boss, Pete Totaller, must have understood that a report e-mailed off at 4:20 am, making no sense and in an alternate form of English must be a form of communenebreation. He decided quickly that this Bud’s not for you and e-mailed him back his severance notice.

Liquorspondence: /Lick-or-spon-dence/ Kimberly was not immune to liquorspondence. Under the influence of romantic ballads and boxed wine, Kimberly not once, but twice, e-mailed Xavier, a yarn sales rep from Vanna’s Choice yarns.

In both instances, she concluded the e-mail asking if she would die alone. Etymology: Liquor (21+) + Correspondence (exchange of words) Created by: thegoatisbad.

DEFINITION: n., A feeling of discomfort, common while sitting on a plane or train, created by the sense that you are about to be decapitated by your fellow passengers who are tilting aggressively towards you. v. To sit in a very small space, which seems to be getting smaller.

Economyclasstrophobia: /ee kono mee klas tro fo beea/ John thought, “No wonder there’s air rage these days. The planes are getting smaller, the line up at security takes longer than the actual flight. A 2 hour flight ends up in an 8 hour outing just to get where you need to go. You either have to buy food in the after security spaces at grossly inflated prices or purchase something to eat on the airplane at even more grossly inflated prices. The headphones for the movie rarely work. The crew are always on skeletal staff levels and forget trying to turn around in the toilet”. After these happy thoughts John was fighting to overcome his economyclasstrophobia, as the seat in front of his slowly edged towards his head. “Seriously, he thought, does that girl really need eyemask and reclined seating for this 20 minute flight??? Next time, I’m driving”, he vowed. Etymology: Economy Class (the cheapest class of air or rail travel) & Claustrophobia (a morbid fear of being closed in a confined space) Created by: Nosila.

Indeed, she was now so anxious of being narrowbinded that she would go to great lengths to assure a seat by herself.
