Etymology: Infatuation (an object of extravagant short-lived passion) & App (short for application...a program that gives a computer instructions that provide the user with tools to accomplish a task)

Pronunciation: guess-moe

Sentence: To Jimmy anything with a seemingly random stream of letters and numbers after its name is a guessmo. The new iFadpad 7X37tz comes with a free firewall and is a shiny thing of beauty. But Jimmy didn't know if he could talk to his mum with it or if he was supposed to attach it to his wall and let it download the internet into his brain. Maybe it was just a fire alarm.

Etymology: A play on the word 'gizmo'. Having to guess at the function of a gadget due to a lack of technological knowledge.

Sentence: *insert mystic music here* I see it...my visions are as clear as crystal... In the near future, Paris would carry a blondoodad with her to her prison cell in 2042, for nothing more than reckless driving [did you think she would learn?!]. The police then wouldn't have the mental capacity to figure out what it was so they will let it slide. Hell, even Paris couldn't figure out what it was. The rest of Paris' days in prison will be spent in suffering... having to be watched by jailmen blondoodading over the blondoodad.

Etymology: blonde [because it has been stereotyped that blondes have more fun and are more beautiful, but are brainless and useless; this stereotype, though, is false and should not be used to judge a person. heck, i'll use this though for fun. XD] + doodad

None of the games that came on it worked well either. She just liked to carry it around, show it off and hear all the cool ring tones.

Etymology: bomb (to fail, blow up), electronic
