Pronunciation: vur - jen - a - tor

Sentence: Dad had a secret weapon “Butch” (aka the “vurgenator”). Once my sisters and I started to notice boys, dad handily rescued him from the local pound. Dad knew just the right moment to launch him into any room of the house before things got too romantic. Butch would stand in front of the lucky couple, teeth barred, growling until it was “hands off” all around…..

Etymology: The word starts with a play on the word virgin (pure and vestal modesty, a woman with no sexual experience) + Urge (to recommend or push, urge also means a strong desire to do something)+ the suffix (ator)(Latin: a suffix that forms masculine nouns from verbs. The nouns denote people who perform the action of the base verb as well as instruments, machines and similar things performing or used to perform the action of the base verb....used in words such as terminator, dictator or gladiator

Sentence: Denise strongly encouraged her daughter Cindy to entertain her boyfriend at home. She would give them full use of the family room while she and Jim (Dad) would keep themselves busy in the kitchen. But Mom was a terrific daughtercooler. She would NEED the punch bowl or grill set from a closet at just the right moment to put a nyet blanket on any nefarious activities. Just a cough or clearing of the throat from the other room could send chills down Cindy's spine. On more than one occasion, Cindy searched the family room looking for a hidden video cam. In the end she decided that Mom must be psychic.

Etymology: Daughter (female offspring) cooler (a device or container for keeping things cool)

Pronunciation: Not-so-soup-er-vis-or

Sentence: Kimberly's niece Pamela thought that a weekend with her Aunt meant she could get away from the oppressive oversight of her parents. Pamela told her friends: "No, you guys should totally come over. She's clueless and she lives by the train tracks." But her dreams were deflated soon after arriving at her Aunt's house. "Oh, I just had a security system installed, so don't touch any of the windows or look at the plants too long." Kimberly said. "Oh, and I have a fun night of kitten puzzles planned!" Pamela quickly realized her Aunt was a notsosupervisor.

Etymology: Not + Supervisor

Pronunciation: /LUST-bus-ter/

Sentence: Nothing could spoil the mood like Andrea's dog, Fang. Like a true 'lustbuster' he had an uncanny ability to sense a sexual advance coming on — Todd didn't even have to make a move toward her — all he had to do was just think about putting an arm around Andrea, and the flea-bitten cur would lift his head and start snarling at him.

Etymology: lust - intense sexual desire or appetite (Old Norse, lyst "desire") + buster - a person who breaks up something (Origin: 1825–35, Americanism; bust & -er)

lol! Excellent choice of words Tigger. :) - Dougalistic, 2008-02-13: 04:40:00

Simple but effective. - ErWenn, 2008-02-13: 10:13:00

Haven't we seen this before for a different definition? It's so good, twice is nice! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-13: 13:04:00

Nice word. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-13: 17:06:00

Doggone, Todd! - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-13: 19:36:00

I didn't recall it being used here before silveryaspen, but if it was I apologize. I was thinking of rhyming the word 'lust' and 'bust' and thought it kinda sounded like 'dustbuster'. - Tigger, 2008-02-14: 00:30:00

Apologies to Stevenson0 — he submitted 'Lustbust' for a similar definition in January. It must've been stuck in the back of my head... it was such a good word. - Tigger, 2008-02-21: 02:20:00

Pronunciation: four-nih-cay-shun

Sentence: Pastor Ted, pad and pen in hand, began to outline his homily for the next day's assembly of ChastiKids from across the country. He planned to start out by detailing all of the benefits of fornicashun. "To say "noitus" to coitus is to respect ones body and give praise to the Lord. Avoiding the mortal sin of lust will prevent you from contracting the many rashes of Satan..." Ted was interrupted as the ink on the paper bloomed into a dark carnation as the prostitutes in his hotel room hot tub started a water fight. There would be time to work on this later, so Ted grabbed his ball-gag and riding crop and intentionally perverted the term "water polo".

Etymology: fornication + shun

Seems like they're about to see Teddy bare! Still thinking about why we choose to name a character in our sentences, "TED." ???? - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-13: 16:58:00

You're a fantastic story writer! - purpleartichokes, 2008-02-13: 19:11:00
