Shrinecologist: /shry nek olo jist/ When Barbie finally accepted an invitation to her friend Randy’s bedroom, she was shocked. He had plastered the walls of his room with photos of her and she could not imagine where he had gotten some of the more intimate shots. She was furious. “Yes, it’s true, I absolutely love you and worship you!”, Randy vowed. Just then Barbie’s phone went off and she grabbed it. “Oh Hi, Buffy, I can’t talk now as I am visiting my shrinecologist…please call 911 and have the police and EMS come to Randy’s House, as I am going to make sure he signs up to play hockey with the Castor Raiders!” Etymology: Shrine (a place of worship hallowed by association with some sacred thing or person) & Gynecologist (the branch of medicine that deals with the diseases and reproductive issues of women) Created by: Nosila.

Pantyloon: /pantēloōn/ Joan was all to happy to help her friend Mike with his virus-infected laptop.

Affrontperson: /af front per son/ Venoma had found the perfect job. She worked as an affrontperson for the telephone company at their fancy head office. It was jokingly called the Customer Service Dept; but employees there were encouraged to trade insults
with patrons, both in person and over the phone. She worked with 2 others, Rudy & Curt and she always won the insult competitions the department had each week. Her family motto was, “The best defence is a good offense” and she strived to live up to that motto. Imagine her surprise when they were all told that the company was closing shop locally and farming it’s business overseas…globalization it was called. But Venoma landed on her feet by being sent overseas to train the new employees on how to insult the customers, even with a strong foreign accent.
