Pronunciation: spiral-i-sing

Sentence: She was spiralyzing in the parking lot, a lot. A lot of spiralyzing was going on today in the parking lot. In the end she was totally spiralyzed.

Etymology: paralyzed + spiral = spiralyzing. why ? because in the end you are paralyzed while moving round in circles. maybe you would have been faster by taking the next best parking-place and walk the rest ? no spiralyzing, no fun.

Pronunciation: stor bit

Sentence: When Venus Houston went to the mall, she would drive around for hours to get the closest spot to her final destination. In other words, she would storbit around rows of vehicles before she came in for a landing in a spot that was not for the disabled/seniors/taxis/young parents. She figured that these storbits were her mission and why they called a free spot a parking "space". Houston, we have a problem...

Etymology: Store (a mercantile establishment for the retail sale of goods or services) & Orbit ( the (usually elliptical) path described by one celestial body in its revolution about another)

Pronunciation: REH car NOY ter

Sentence: Stacy carefully recarnnoitered the terrain, searching for the one perfect spot that would land her closest to the mall entrance. It didn't do her any good in the end, though, because when she left, after closing, she went out the wrong side of the mall and the door locked behind her. She had to walk halfway around the mall in the dark, through ice and snow, with her big packages, to find her car. "Next time," she thought to herself, "I'm going to do more careful recarnnaissance before I park."

Etymology: car + reconnoiter
