Sentence: Jennifer loved nature and everything in it. Almost. She was okay with the creepy crawlies -- bugs and worms and maggots.

Want to do a little recycling in the sunshine!"

Etymology: green and creepy!

Sentence: Being the greennose that Bill was, he approached Matilda and asked if he could dispose of her used Soda Can after lunch in an ecologically correct collection device. He did this, not because he really cared about recycling but because he knew that Matilda cared very much about the green movement and she happened to be the hottest chick in the office.

Etymology: green + brown nose
