Pronunciation: owch-less-my-ass

Sentence: I had heard that ripping a band-aid off quickly was the least painful method, however, when I did it to Mark, judging from his blood-curdling scream, I suspected he just experienced ouchelessmyass. He claimed it was depullofterror and I had committed follikill - I say he was just being a big baby.

Etymology: From Band-Aid's ridiculous claim to be "ouchless"

i hear water actually helps with the ouchless band-aids. - jadenguy, 2007-06-06: 16:44:00

I'll bet massage oil or lubricant works even better. - Clayton, 2007-06-06: 18:15:00

Pronunciation: skin-jure

Sentence: Sara wasn't trying to skinjure Fred when she pulled the bandaid off his arm; however, he still cried like a girl when she touched him.

Etymology: skin: outer layer of the body + injure: to cause pain or physical harm

COMMENTS:

Yes, "yank-job" sounds like it could be dirty. But it's not. - ErWenn, 2007-06-06: 01:09:00

Oh, it's still dirty, all right. Maybe not in the context you've provided, but rest assured: use of the term predates this discussion by decades. - Clayton, 2007-06-06: 07:15:00

Those yanks were always a bit dodgy! - galwaywegian, 2007-06-06: 07:25:00

(insert the joke about pink and purple here.) - purpleartichokes, 2007-06-06: 07:55:00

As always, the best word here. - Osomatic, 2007-06-06: 13:22:00

You think my word is always the best? I guess I know who my usual one vote comes from. (Now I'm trying to think of a way of saying "thanks" that doesn't sound sarcastic after that remark.) - ErWenn, 2007-06-07: 01:16:00
