Pronunciation: BLEET-sink

Sentence: Generica was a delightful lassie who was driven to expound at length in clipped sentences on the excruciating details of her alpine life. Her wooly logic did not penetrate, but only grazed the skulls of those who inexplicably flocked to bask in her aura. Shorn of all restraint, her radiant soul and genuine sincerity was so endearing that you cud only hope to drive in a word wedge when she stopped ruminating to catch her breath. Most people just became BLEATSINKS for Generica's rambling monologues, sheepishly absorbing the airy earnestness of whatever it was she was talking about. I became a BLEATSINK myself, held fast by her steady gaze while the evening passed with the speed of a glacier. I might have stomped out had I been younger, but it's difficult to resist such charms- especially when you're pasture prime.

Etymology: BLEAT+SINK=BLEATSINK-A takeoff on heatsink (a device that absorbs or dissipates unwanted heat ) BLEAT:to make the natural cry of a sheep or goat, to utter a similar sound,to talk complainingly or with a whine,to utter in a bleating manner, blather; Middle English bleten, from Old English blǣtan;akin to Latin flēre to weep........SINK:penetrate,absorb, to become opressively known or felt; Middle English, from Old English sincan; akin to Old High German sinkan to sink.

Pronunciation: Vent-rawl-ation

Sentence: Diane's heart sank as she saw who was calling, but it was too late, she had pressed the accept button. Michael launched into his usual monotonic whining soliloquoy without as much as a 'how are you?' and before she knew it Diane was the same old sounding board she always had been since the start of this ventrawlation he chose to call a "friendhship". One day she really would train a parrot to say "uhuh" and "I know, oh, I know" just to see if he would notice. Or maybe she'd just get a new phone number and move to Cleveland.

Etymology: Vent - to release emotional energy with excess verbiage; drawl - excessive, pointless or slow speech; relation - indicative of a relationship of some variety.

Pronunciation: talk-n-eared (slurring of talk and eared)

Sentence: Earl had a behemouth. Pearl had doggyears. Earl would morrattle and jabble endlessly. His constant prickanears were music to Pearl's ears. Pearl was an earternal listenear. It isn't hard to understand why Pearl didn't develop eardropsy from his endless greift of gab and tongue-blashing. It was because she was born as tongue-less as the sandals she wore! Their marriage was perfect, for they had a talkineared relationship!

Etymology: He would talk and she would lend an ear so their relationship was talkineared. Also a play on engineered, as well as talk an ear off.

I think maybe you should change your name to silverytongue because you always have a nice comment for all the players - we really do appreciate it - Jabberwocky, 2008-02-11: 12:01:00

Luv the sentence and "behemouth." Nice word, too. Could also add "domineer" to the etymology and use alternate spelling " Talkineer." Agree with Jabberwocky your comments are appreciated. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-11: 15:52:00

Aprreciate the compliments, Jabberwocky and Ozziebob. Shucks ... now I have to go polish my silverytongue! (wink/grin) Nice advice, as always, Ozziebob! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-11: 18:12:00

Pronunciation: matt-trih-mohn-o-log

Sentence: When Jenna's husband would begin a droning matrimonologue about the good old days in the frat house in college, she would escape through the back door in her mind. Today she found herself in the middle of the Caribbean aboard a pirate ship, with Captain Fabio, who proceeded to use his "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray" in the most debaucherous of manners. Oddly enough, her husband was having a very similar fantasy, but with substantially more Greek-letter-inscribed paddling.

Etymology: matrimony + monologue
