Pronunciation: gal-ohs-bee-ver

Sentence: We were keenly discussing the Tolkien references in Zeppelin's music, when Robert's mate Jimmy phoned; and of course the gallowsbeaver had to ramble on, seemingly forgetting our presence.

Etymology: From "gallows" which leaves people hanging, and "beaver" used to mean someone who is eager, and "dam" rude. Boom boom. Also "beavers" in Scouting are the youngest members, giving my word connotations of "childish".

Pronunciation: dee CELL er ate

Sentence: Meetings with my boss are a giant pain in the neck and take way too long, because he always manages to decellerate the meeting at least once by answering his cell phone while we are meeting. And everyone is trapped just sitting there because he does the "wait a minute sign" with his index finger throughout the call. Sometimes he even decellerates things further by placing a call and then holding a three-way phone conversation about other business!

Etymology: cell + decelerate

Pronunciation: cell/out

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

Etymology: cell + sell out
