Stunmulate<\/strong>: \/stun myu layt<\/em>\/ When the geek asked Elvira for a seat for his wheelbarrow, she, being the quintessential helpful sales associate quipped quickly to the question designed to stunmulate her out of a boring sales day. He told her it needed a seat and she proceeded to flourish her tape measure and tell him that if he needed to ride in the wheelbarrow, he’d need a safety approved seat belt, a helmet and a made-to-measure bucket seat. They just needed to measure his seat area…all part of the service. Etymology:<\/em> Stun (overcome as with astonishment or disbelief) & Stimulate (cause to be alert and energetic;cause to do; cause to act in a specified manner) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Prodvoke<\/strong>: \/pr\u00c3\u00a4dv\u00c5\u008dk<\/em>\/ During his weekly meetings with his staff, Larry loved to prodvoke people to think outside the box.

Queery<\/strong>: \/KWEE ree<\/em>\/ Ms. Luny, our 7th-grade science teacher, loved to pose queeries that really made us think. My favorite one of all time was, “Why doesn’t the sun come out at night when we need it?” Etymology:<\/em> query (question) + queer (strange; odd; peculiar) Created by:<\/em> karenanne.<\/p>\n

Mindgame<\/strong>: \/\u00cb\u02c6m\u00c4\u00abnd\u00cb\u02c6g\u00c4\u0081m<\/em>\/ Derek enjoys to mindgame \u00e2\u20ac\u0153slow\u00e2\u20ac\u009d people so they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll demean themselves. However, the day came when Derek himself became the victim of mindgame. Etymology:<\/em> Rather obvious. Mind(noun) + Game(verb) Created by:<\/em> RightOnTheWin.<\/p>\n
