Verboticisms

Created by: OZZIEBOB

Pronunciation: KRINJ-lick

Sentence: Roxie spoke calmly; but as I looked at her countenance I observed a strange expression pass over it. "Are you in pain, Roxie?" I asked. " Not exactly, Bob," she answered; though I don't wish to alarm you by telling what Fido is about to do. As I watched Fido, muddy paws and all, was quickly making his way towards a lady dressed from head to toe in pink. In the next second, to my horror, his tail wagging fawnishly, and with his paws placed firmly on her waist, he planted his slobbery tongue on her chin. Although there was nothing I could do that was likely to do any good; but, by way of an apology, I try to explain to her about Fido's friendly zanimality for persons dressed in pink; whilst, at the same time, hoping that my love for Fido would carry me through this attack of cringelick, or whatever it was.

Etymology: CRINGE: To draw one's self together as in fear or crouch with base humility; to wince & LICK: to pass the tongue over the surface of, as to moisten, taste, or eat. ZANIMALITY: zany & animal & -ity.

COMMENTS:

VERY creative Ozziebob. But as FIDO's attorney, I must inform you that character assasination is prohibited by law. FIDO has paid for his crimes and is prevented from obtaining gainful employment by these constant media attacks on his character. I appeal to the pubic's sense of fair play and implore you to stop dragging FIDO's name through the mud and bringing it inside covered in dog saliva and leaving it on my good rug.... - metrohumanx, 2008-07-04: 08:06:00

I love zanimality too - Jabberwocky, 2008-07-04: 10:38:00

I have heard of other dogs who do this. Perhaps there's a cringelick epizootic? - Mustang, 2008-07-04: 17:12:00

Pronunciation: petəfīl

Sentence: There is a rule at the dog park that no children under 12 should enter the off-leash area. To do so often results in the children being knocked over and petophiled by most of the male and many of the female dogs present. Looks like that **Birds & Bees** talk may need to be moved up on the calendar.

Etymology: pet (a domestic or tamed animal or bird kept for companionship or pleasure and treated with care and affection) + pedophile (a person who is sexually attracted to children)

Pronunciation: crotch/itty

Sentence: Rumor has it that Doug and Fido had been banned from the dog park due to many complaints. It seems Fido was becoming more and more crotchety. So much so that even men started to call in complaints.

Etymology: I think it's obvious. :)

COMMENTS:

If you think FIDO was despicable, you should meet ROVER! CROTCHETY is very apt, but why is it always about sex? - metrohumanx, 2008-07-04: 07:58:00

Pronunciation: zoo mil ee ayt

Sentence: Although Andrea was very fond of her new love, John, a rich doctor (her Mother would be delighted), she was afraid of going to his place for the first time. He had loads of animals and she feared that they might zoomiliate her, because she was not fond of them and they might sense it. Her worst phobias were realized that first night when the dogs dogged her, the cats were purrfectly awful to her, the hamsters hampered her, the budgies bugged her, the rabbits were rabid to her, the parrot parodied her, the ferrets fretted her, the turtles left her shell-shocked, the horses gave her nightmares, the cows bullied her, the goats and sheep treated her baaaadly and the chickens were fowl to her. She ran off never to return. Dr.John Doolittle then turned to his flock and thanked them for getting rid of the gold-digger!

Etymology: Zoo (Menagerie;group of animals housed in a place) & Humiliate (embarrass;mortify;shame)
