Pronunciation: jirk fek tay shun

Sentence: Why did Lacey ever think that George's habit of using chauvinistic terms of endearment was cute? His familiarity had seemed quaint when he called her Cutie or Babe or Toots or Doll. She was beginning to think he could not remember her actual first name. His jirkfectation was equally applied to all women he encountered. But he went too far in calling the Mother Superior of the local convent, Hottie. Lacey reckoned his punishment in Hell would be a term of enfearment.

Etymology: Jerk (a dull stupid fatuous person) & Irk (to irritate or vex)& Affectation (a deliberate pretense or exaggerated display)

Pronunciation: /'tik-&l-"mE/

Sentence: While the toddler quickly learned that affecting a lisp was a good way to get adults to do what she wanted, it wasn't until long after it started having the opposite effect that she realized it for the tickleme it was.

Etymology: As in the "Tickle-me Elmo" doll. Some (not all) may have found it once cute, but no talking toy with less than a 50-sentence vocabulary can help but become annoying after awhile.
