Pronunciation: bar rak o wha ma

Sentence: Julie was a regular Barrackowhama. Her tongue was like a rapier, her wit was sardonic and her retorts were as snide as they were deadly quick. No one ever won a verbal victory over her. Her favourite soda was Spite, her favourite cocktail was a Stinger and she enjoyed holidaying in the Vitriolic Islands. When others were cutting back, she was affronting and her favourite actor was William Hurt. Her abuse knew no boundaries and no one was exempt from her derision. She loved being scurrilious and enjoyed driving her new car, a black Invective. She could vituberate better than any Marine drill sargent and always played offense when she played high school football. Yes, Julie could revile for hours and never tire of the insults she threw around contumely like seeds of grain to the wind. Luckily her new job would allow her to use her skills and be paid well for it. She starts next week with the UN Diplomatic Corps!

Etymology: barrack (laugh at with contempt and derision) & wham (hit hard) & of course Barack Obama (for rhyming fun)

Pronunciation: af front per son

Sentence: Venoma had found the perfect job. She worked as an affrontperson for the telephone company at their fancy head office. It was jokingly called the Customer Service Dept; but employees there were encouraged to trade insults with patrons, both in person and over the phone. She worked with 2 others, Rudy & Curt and she always won the insult competitions the department had each week. Her family motto was, "The best defence is a good offense" and she strived to live up to that motto. Imagine her surprise when they were all told that the company was closing shop locally and farming it's business overseas...globalization it was called. But Venoma landed on her feet by being sent overseas to train the new employees on how to insult the customers, even with a strong foreign accent.

Etymology: Afront (a deliberately offensive act or something producing the effect of an affront;treat, mention, or speak to rudely) & Person (a human being)
