Wish you had finished and given us a sentence and etymology. Your verboticism is good, but it would be better if you polished it off with the rest! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 21:04:00

Pronunciation: oz-mohr-on

Sentence: "She looks so shriveled and mummified," Paul said, taking another osmoronic pull from the Nalgene bottle. "I can't believe she drowned." He fumbled to recap the jug as he stared at the husk of a woman before him. Kathleen sighed and left him alone by the casket as he noisily unscrewed the cap again for another swig.

Etymology: Osmosis - The involuntary passing of liquid across a membrane, moron - an insipid twit

Too easy, I know. - ErWenn, 2008-02-21: 00:08:00

Maybe it was easy for you, but I'd have never thought of it! When I read it I erupted in loud laughter! You have taken gross humor to new heights ... or should I say watery depths! Kudos for your extraordinary sentence and an ingenious verbot! Excellent! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 02:17:00

how much water would it take to hydro fill a yak? very nice! - galwaywegian, 2008-02-21: 06:22:00

Splendiferous verboticism!! - Mustang, 2008-02-21: 07:20:00

The "too easy" was referring to the word. I've always been a bit of a liquiphiliac (though my drink of choice used to be soda, before my dentist showed me what I was doing to my walle-I mean teeth), so I've had years to refine that fish/horse joke; if it's not funny, I need a new hobby. - ErWenn, 2008-02-21: 21:25:00

Excellent. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-22: 00:11:00

Great etymology. You captured the unnecessary and impolite aspects of the definition swimmingly! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 13:16:00
