Sentence: Rosie could never resist that siren's call, her cell phone. When that mechanical song rang, she forgot all else in her haste to avoid missing an important call. She was in fact endentured to cellavery, even when entwined with another person. She had lost many a fond young lover to her compulsion, as few could compete with her encellavement. Especially since her ringtone played "Hit the road, Jack". She needed a he-mancipator to re-charge her love battery before it was too late...

Etymology: Cell (cellular phone) and sounds like Slavery ( the state of being under the control of another person or thing or force)
