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

Slothram<\/strong>: \/slowth-ram<\/em>\/ Her computer chugged along as though it ran on steam, much like her husband. She wondered how she’d come to allow two slothrams into her life such as these. Perhaps she was due an upgrade – on both counts. Etymology:<\/em> Slothram: sloth n. unwillingness to work or make any effort or n. slow mammal + ram n. adult male mammal and RAM (random access memory) n. a type of computer memory which can be searched in any order and changed as necessary Created by:<\/em> womblin3.<\/p>\n

Spousalpause<\/strong>: \/<\/em>\/ Linda stopped asking “Does this dress look alright”? after developing an intolerance for spousalpause. Etymology:<\/em> Created by:<\/em> bosstown.<\/p>\n

Decelermate<\/strong>: \/de sel er mayt<\/em>\/ Allegra had never quite gotten used to the fact that her hubby, Dell, could decelermate any discussion or activity. He appeared to act and think and speak in slow motion and with age, this lethargy became more noticeable. When she asked him about replacing her very slow old computer, he was actually slower than the computer in responding. It is little wonder why he was dropped off at the recycling centre with all the other useless equipment. Etymology:<\/em> Decelerate (lose velocity; move more slowly) & Mate (spouse, partner in marriage\/relationship) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Dimwidget<\/strong>: \/dimwijit<\/em>\/ Joyce isn*t sure why but she still carries around her antique, dimwidget Palm Pilot. It*s slow to use, has few functions that she couldn*t achieve with a scrap of paper and it glitches out whenever she actually needs it to perform a function. When she complains to her dimwidget husband, his only suggestion is that she get new batteries. She just might replace both items soon. Etymology:<\/em> dimwit (a stupid or silly person) +widget (a small gadget or mechanical device) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
