Sentence: The dead victim had been sucking a water bottle when the investigators arrived on the scene. They also couldn't quite miss the numerous water bottles on the kitchen sink and the boxes of mineral water stacked on one side of the kitchen wall. They believe the man was a suckee. However, two sets of fingerprints were lifted off from the bottles. One belonged to the victim and the other to an unknown person.

Pronunciation: sip-BOT-l

Sentence: There they were: a motley mob of drinkwaters, sipsops, aquaholics, potable-notables, hydroeclectics and sipbottles with their prete-a-pote designer bottiglia. I said to Bluey. "Crikey, what's this country coming to when a bloke can't get a beer". Blue nodded, "Dunno, but I got more respect for a koala than this lot. But ya know, Bobbie boy, what "Evian" spells backwards, don't ya? Naive!"

Etymology: SIPBOTTLE:Sip & bottle. PRETE-A-POTE:ready to drink, based on prete-a-porte. KOALA: marsupial whose name means in native languages: one who doesn't drink water. EVIAN: the most popular brand of bottled water in Australia, probably sold worldwide.

I really like hydroeclectics - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-21: 13:38:00

My favorite was potable-notables. Bountiful verbots! Bountiful humor! Nice twists! Great sentence! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 13:49:00

How about 'sipsops'? So many to choose from, Bob. Interesting bit about the word 'Koala' too! - Tigger, 2008-02-21: 23:34:00

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

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

Pronunciation: Baht-tul -sap

Sentence: Don't you feel sorry for the water bottle bearers and their constant need to be suckers? Poor bottlesaps!

Etymology: Play on bottle caps. Bottle: container for water. Sap: slang term for a sucker. Zap: hit by a need. (In the book of bent grammar, could sap be the past tense of sip?)

----------------------------
COMMENTS:

I believe some people have collections of bottlesaps - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-21: 13:31:00

I like the comment about 'sap' being the past tense of 'sip' (like sit and sat)... I know, I'm such a dictionerd. - Tigger, 2008-02-21: 23:15:00

Mis-spelt the word. Should be hydroplonk. Hydro - water powered. plonk - to be a plonker. Worried that he would dry out completely the hydroplonker persistently pursed for hydro power. - trueblue147, 2008-02-21: 19:43:00

Is hydroplonk related to hydroplonic? Good one! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 20:39:00

You might like to know there's an 'edit' button at the bottom before 'comments and points' ... and early on there's a 'change spelling' button too. Hope this helps you. - silveryaspen, 2008-02-21: 20:42:00
