COMMENTS:

I'm actually not quite that bad. I don't answer it at family events (unless it's more family), in theaters, or during class. And I always keep it on silent. But I worry about it nonetheless. - ErWenn, 2007-04-05: 08:31:00

Ringslave precedes ringworm. - purpleartichokes, 2007-04-05: 08:56:00

Ringworm at dinner? Yikes... - wordmeister, 2007-04-05: 14:01:00

Pronunciation: Sslut

Sentence: Ferdinand had impeccable table manners, he held the door open for old ladies crossing the street and even coughed to mask his flatulence, however when it came to mobile communication his etiquette was in the gutter. At the merest quiver of his cellular telephone, regardless of how deep in conversation he was in with the esteemed friend or colleague right in front of him he pounced on his oral interaction device and started gabbling frivolous nonsense. He was without doubt a most terrible cellut.

Etymology: Cell+Slut = Cellut

Pronunciation: in/sell/ent

Sentence: Joe's rudeness was abounding. Whenever he got a phone call, he would be incellent, totally ignoring the person he was with. Being incellent is the twenty-first century's virtual slap in the face. Being incellent is uncivil, uncultured, boorish, tasteless, insensitive, disrespectful, ill-mannered, loutish, discourteous and just damn plain rude and impolite.

Etymology: INCELLENT - noun - from INSOLENT (boldly rude, or disrespectful; insulting) + CELL (as in cell phone)
