VERBOTICISMS:<\/strong> (Invented words created by the Verbotomy Writers)<\/em><\/p>\n

Empludgeon<\/strong>: \/<\/em>\/ Bob is our most vocal empludgeon, he happily complains about everything. Etymology:<\/em> Employee+curmudgeon Created by:<\/em> nswgrove.<\/p>\n

Disployee<\/strong>: \/dis-ploi-ee<\/em>\/ Mack is a great disployee. No matter what the company does, he can find the down side of it. The company throws a holiday party; they should have put the money into larger raises. The company pays for employee’s parking; garages are ugly and unhealthy because of exhaust fumes. If his dad wasn’t the owner, he’d have quit long ago. Etymology:<\/em> dis (to show disrespect for; affront) + employee (a person working for another person or a business firm for pay) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n

Moandrone<\/strong>: \/mone drone<\/em>\/ Sherry was a moandrone. She endlessly complained about everything at work. Her peers called her Moana Lot behind her back and many had told her she should quit if she hated it so much. But truth is, despite it all, she had found the perfect job at the distillery. She was now officially called a whine taster… Etymology:<\/em> Moan (complain,indicate displeasure\/discomfort) & Drone (an unchanging intonation;someone who takes more time than necessary, lags behind) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Moanerlisa<\/strong>: \/mone-er-LEE-sah<\/em>\/ Lisa’s workmates had dubbed her with the nickname ‘moanerlisa’ not only for her penchant for whining thru the day about her job but also for the wry smile she constantly wore while griping. Etymology:<\/em> Blend of words ‘moaner’ (one who complains or expresses pain) and Lisa, a woman’s name. Play on the name of the painting, Mona Lisa Created by:<\/em> Mustang.<\/p>\n
