Pronunciation: mil/doopt

Sentence: The twins were thrilled to be in their first and very own apartment. No more Mom and dad breathing down their necks or peeking out windows when dates were dropping them off. Their new place looked so good when it had the last tenants belongings in it. It somehow even looked cleaner than it really was. Molly's first shower sounded to Holly like a scene out of Alfred Hitchcock's movie Psycho. When Holly ran in to see what was going on, Molly was standing in the shower screaming and pointing, "LOOK! We've been milduped! This shower does did NOT originally match the peach colored walls and decor!"

Etymology: Mildew: A superficial coating or discoloration of organic materials caused by fungi, especially under damp conditions. Duped: slang for: To deceive

Pronunciation: ee kol ee nyzed

Sentence: Pathogenia thought she was alone in her abode. It was not until after she had had several showers in the less-than-new apartment that she felt crowded out. At first it was the odd spot or streak on the curtain or wall, but after a few days, she realized she was ecolinized by a different life form. Thank goodness for her new boyfriend, Mr. Klean. He came straight over after her panicky call and sprayed every inch of the bathroom with his essence. The orange blight was eliminated and she was once more alone in her apartment. At least until the mice, silverfish and cockroaches drop in for a visit...

Etymology: E-coli (Escherichia coli-Escherichia coli (abbreviated as E. coli) are a large and diverse group of bacteria) & Colonized (a settlement; those who settle in a new colony or move into new country; migrants)

Pronunciation: Mush-gr-oom

Sentence: Sally decided the only way to get rid of her hangover from the previous nights pub crawl was a good scrub in the shower. Due to her condition she had forgotten to remove her contact lenses before she passed out. This lead to the discovery of a very unpleasant growth of mushgroom lurking in the corner of the shower tray. Being short sighted she had not spotted the disgusting gooey mess before and therefore it had grown to quite a size. Her piercing screams coud be heard for miles, the police arrived expecting to attend a homicide and could not believe it when Sally explained what had actually happened.

Etymology: Mush(a soft wet pulpy mass) + Groom(to pay attention to personal hygiene and appearance) = Mushgrooom. Play on Mushroom(a spore producing body of a fungus)

Methinks there exists a link between excessive alcohol consumption and scary fungi, wouldn't you agree, Watson? - metrohumanx, 2008-09-29: 16:46:00
