Yumbonus
Created by: metrohumanx
Pronunciation: yum-BO-nuss
Sentence: Deierdre had it all-looks, talent, money... and she was just slopping over with class. StubblyJack was sure she was "The One"...until he saw her eat a burrito. When she finished the beantorpedo, she proceeded to scrape the foil wrapper with her teeth, YUMBONUSing the congealed cheese with gusto. StubblyJack had never seen anyone mortifeed before, but for the sake of love, he would try to get used to it. Pizza boxes, popsickle sticks, styrofoam plates and cupcake shells would not be discarded until Deirdre had eaten all the stubbornly clinging nutriscraps. She had an endearing habit of running her finger around the bottom of the pudding pot. StubblyJack tried to ingestall with her, but he just couldn't match Deierdre's ability to YUMBONUS all the dregs of 21st century take-out food.
Etymology: Yum-interjection used to express pleasurable satisfaction especially in the taste of food..... Bonus: something in addition to what is expected or strictly due-Latin, literally, good

Lapitizers
Created by: lumina
Pronunciation: lap/i/tize/ers
Sentence: Saturday night was the last straw for Ed. Grabbing a bite to eat out in public with June was just too humiliating.

He ignored the time she grabbed everyone's utensils at the company picnic making sure no condiment or sugary glaze went to waste. But when she moistened her fingers and then started dabbing at his pant legs for lapitizers in front of his parents, he was as Jerry Seinfeld said in one of the many classic episodes, "Off the project!"
