Pronunciation: lak kwayn tans

Sentence: When Cyndi went to her high school reunion, she still dressed in her best 80's attire. Of course everyone else had dressed in modern day fashions, including the guy she always had a crush on...Seymour Modes. Seymour was now a Magazine Editor and tres moderne! As she later told her geeky friends who were too scared to go to the reunion, she and Seymour had a relationship whereby they were each's lackquaintance. As the night and free booze wore on, they found a cozy corner to re-lackquaint themselves. Luckily it worked out for them. They are now an item and she writes a great retro column for his magazine and he dresses more and more with an eighties influence. Their acquaintenceship no longer lacks anything!

Etymology: Lack ( the state of needing something that is absent or unavailable; be without) & Acquaintance (a relationship less intimate than friendship;personal knowledge or information about someone or something)

Sentence: "What a flagramigo," Tiffany thought, "Wasn't he always that way?" Brent had just dissed her royally as he worked his way around the old high school gym. But, she had been prepared for him earlier, when she saw him flagramigizing almost every chick in the room.At least his abuse of her had only been verbal. All night long she had seen him "accidently" bumping into and spilling drinks on those he was attracted to. She was so thankful for the book called "The Beauty of Boundaries" she had just read.

Etymology: As a verb: from flagrant, meaning consipicuously offensive + amigo, Spanish for friend; noun: flagramigo, meaning a person who is a conspicuously offensive "friend."

Pronunciation: re fren emee

Sentence: When Janet met Brad again at the reunion, she realized he had become a refrenemy. He not only hated her hair and her dress style, (She was sure the invitations stated retro 80's look, so as people could recognize each other) but he also was still an older but more judgmental geek. It was when she caught him making out with Sue (she of the Just Sue Me! fame) that she realized he was just "Desparately Seeking Susan" and not really into the fact that she was Madonna's personal assistant! Loser!

Etymology: Re-friend (a person with whom you are re-acquainted) & Enemy (a hostile individual, not in your support group)
