Knoblivion

Created by: Nosila

Pronunciation: nob liv ee yon

Sentence: When Olivia hit the volume button on her ipod, she managed to enter her own little world, unaware of anything around her. She created a world of knoblivion, where nothing else existed but her. It was during this state of knoblivion that she failed to notice the red sports car that barely missed her and had to swerve into a big tree, flipping over the vehicle and trapping the driver. Calamities to others followed her until one day, she ignored the warning bells and the 4:15 downtown bus punched her ticket permanently.

Etymology: Knob (dial;button that controls volume) & Oblivion (forgetfulness;a state of being unaware)
