Clever sentence! Graphic puns! Nifty verboticism! - silveryaspen, 2008-02-07: 08:53:00

Wonderful word and sentence. I suspect you and Banky (Maltruist) will be taking it away today. - ErWenn, 2008-02-07: 10:18:00

I guess the "milk of human kindness" has turned sour! Perhaps, also, the 'milk and honey route' is closed for repair! Top sentence and word. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-07: 18:13:00

nice, me jumped when I saw word - purpleman, 2008-02-07: 20:41:00

Pronunciation: maowl-troo-ist

Sentence: Alan had never been all that interested in the news. He couldn't tell you what area of the country was buried under a blizzard, or who Larry Craig was. It was much more relaxing to listen to music or play Xbox when he got home from his 9 to 5, instead of having to read about the latest genocide. So when the hand ran along the underside of the stall separator at the rest area just before St. Louis on I-70, he reached for the extra roll to hand to the stranger in need. Accusations, handcuffs, and a court date later, Alan the maltruist would be forced to learn how men cruise for men in prison as well, when he helped that clumsy guy in the shower with the bar of soap he had dropped.

Etymology: mal - prefix meaning bad, altruist - someone devoted to the welfare of others
