Verboticisms

Pronunciation: show ver row ver

Sentence: Candy was a carefree spirited soul whose adherence to her father Bob's moral standards could only be described as loose. Whilst this made her popular around many ends in town, her frolicksome nature was an embarrassment to Bob, as she would often attend the Sunday service looking a tad unkempt. After answering the door to yet another 'suitor' whose agenda was barely hidden, Bob decided to act. No longer would he watch them come and go. Only gents cut from the finest of cloth would be suitable for his Candy. He quickly hatched a plan, and the pup arrived the next day. By walking him past the towns seediest establishments, Bob trained the dog in the art of pheremone detection. When he took a shining to Candy, Bob knew he had done it! No more would you notice an errant hormone under his roof. After a few acid tests they named him in honour of his waftily touted snout: Chauvirover.

Etymology: (Male) Chauvinist: Man who demeans and objectifies women, often sexually. Rover: Standard issue canine name. Innuend... oh, never mind.

Pronunciation: third - wheel- er

Sentence: Gordon snaked his arm along the back of the lounge and looked longingly into Miranda's eyes. But only for a fleeting second! That amorous feeling had quickly dissipated when the thirdweiler prowled into the room making low growling noises and raising its hackles. The only drooling going on was the dog.

Etymology: third wheel (one who deters the couple's activities - just by being there) + Rottweiler (a breed of dog often used for guard dogs)
