Pronunciation: ignərsent

Pronunciation: OB-lih-vile

Sentence: Victor was a real OBLIVILE. Although he worked in an old factory, he never missed a chance to pass up a shower. Constantly surrounded by a pungent mephitis, most folks assumed a dead ungulate was buried nearby. At the company picnic, Victor was reekinatus- even when we sat downwince of him. His stencharoma began to repugnegrate on us all, and when Shirley adressed him as "BacteriOllie", Victor was fetadamant...claiming the deadly vapours were not his to control. Aloof, unswayed and unwashed, Victor the OBLIVILE will always retain a top ranking in the annals of aromagression.

Etymology: OBLIVious+vILE=OBLIVILE (n) OBLIVIOUS:lacking active conscious knowledge or awareness especially of one's shortcomings or odours.....VILE: disgustingly or utterly bad;physically repulsive-Middle English, from Anglo-French vil, from Latin vilis.
