Boreponger

Created by: readerwriter

Pronunciation: bore-pong-er

Sentence: In her daily visits to the gym, Feclicia found nothing harder than to be polite in the presence of a boreponger. These ones, so dull in their enthusiasm for themselves and all they were doing to improve their lives...these ones who left such a foul stench in the midst of their comings and goings, left her no recourse, but to turn up the treadmill and walk faster. On the upside, she was reaching her weight loss goals ahead of time.

Etymology: from bore, an uninspiring person + pong, a stench Rhymes with "whoremonger" so it has that tone of low-life, twisted values, etc
