Pronunciation: poin-tid-bit

Sentence: Kimberly never bought rock candy without buying orajel or anbesol.

About the side effect: "Oh, it's the greatest tongue scrapper around" she explained to Zinnia while drooling blood, "it's done wonders for my breath."

Pronunciation: injərdərētōs

Sentence: If I didn't know better i would think Matt was something of a masochist. Every time I see him he is munching on a bag of Injuritos. The full-size chips are bad enough but the shards in the bottom of the bag might as well be chunks of glass. The insidious part is that the company that makes these "shivs in a sack" has added an ingredient called nacho that numbs the palate so that the damage is hardly noticed.

Etymology: injured (harmed, damaged, or impaired) + Doritos (a popular brand of chips)
