\"Honey,<\/p>\n

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

Nagression<\/strong>: \/nag resh shun<\/em>\/ Rhoda Rage always lectured her spouse,Red, about the importance of defensive driving. She also pointed out potential hazards to him along the route…like a person crossing the road, a mile ahead. Or a red light, three blocks away. Although she could not drive herself, she was an expert on what he should be doing. But all her cautions became a form of nagression and irritated the heck out of Red. Her constant comments made him nervous and edgy. He took his frustration out on other motorists. They eventually split up, because he wanted to take another Rhoda and she did not want to see Red anymore. Etymology:<\/em> Nag (remind or urge constantly; bother persistently with trivial complaints;worry persistently) & Aggression (violent action that is hostile and usually unprovoked;deliberately unfriendly behavior; the act of initiating hostilities;a disposition to behave aggressively;a feeling of hostility that arouses thoughts of attack) <\/p>\n

Motivile<\/strong>: \/mo-ti-vile<\/em>\/ On their last date, Lea learned why “motivile” rhymes with “juvenile.” When she mentioned his bad driving habits he acted like he was fifteen years old, shouting out loud and being contrary by driving like a maniac. Etymology:<\/em> motivate:to provide an incentive for behavior + vile: loathsome, disgusting, contemptible Created by:<\/em> mrskellyscl.<\/p>\n

Exacerbait<\/strong>: \/ex ass er bate<\/em>\/ Jill would constantly exacerbait Jack to complete exasperation; I think that’s why he’s now her ex. Etymology:<\/em> Exacerbate & Bait

Contradick<\/strong>: \/k\u00c3\u00a4ntr\u00c9\u2122dik<\/em>\/ Katy has just about had it with her boyfriend. He is such a contradick. Whenever she suggests a change to his behavior, he re-doubles his bad behavior to prove his independence. Etymology:<\/em> contradictory (mutually opposed or inconsistent) + dick (slang: jerk) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
