Whinecrastinate<\/strong>: \/whyne-cras-tuh-nayt<\/em>\/ “Jodie spends more time whinecrastinating about her fat butt than she does exercising. If she worked her body out as much as she works her jaw out, she’d be a size six too!”<\/p>\n

“Barry is the biggest whinecrastinator on the planet. He was telling me how frustrating it is that his desk is messy. Well, it’s his own fault, isn’t it! Why didn’t he just clean it up instead of wasting his breath telling me about it? I have actual work to do!”<\/p>\n

“Thomas, your whinecrastination is beyond belief! Ever heard of Nike? Just do it, man!” Etymology:<\/em> whine – to make a complaining cry or sound
\n+
\ncrastinate, from procrastinate – to delay or postpone action; put off doing something. Created by:<\/em> airliebee.<\/p>\n

Gripeaholic<\/strong>: \/gri – p – ah – haul – ik<\/em>\/ Sonora was a gripeaholic and she knew it. She could not stop complaining and her addiction had grown worse. She started a GA group (gripeaholic’s anonymous) for people who wanted to stop. Problem was, their meetings turned into “gripefests” and nothing was ever accomplished. Etymology:<\/em> Gripe (complain) + alcholic (someone who is addicted to alcohol) Created by:<\/em> mweinmann.<\/p>\n

Whinemaker<\/strong>: \/wyn may ker<\/em>\/ Stacy was the world’s greatest whinemaker. No matter what the subject or event, she could easily manufacture a complaint about it without making any suggestions for improvements. Most people were sure that if she won big on the lottery, she’d be complaining about how she should spend it… Etymology:<\/em> Whine (complain) & Maker (someone who manufactures something) and wordplay on Winemaker (someone who produces wine) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Fussargy<\/strong>: \/f\u00c9\u2122s\u00c9\u2122rj\u00c4\u201c<\/em>\/ In a case of fussargy Alan complained that somebody had left the Xerox machine void of paper despite the fact that a pack of paper is sitting on the shelf next the copier. At that point he returned to his office leaving it just the way he found it. Etymology:<\/em> fuss (show unnecessary or excessive concern about something) + lethargy (a lack of energy and enthusiasm) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
