Pronunciation: sor and rap

Sentence: Wrapunzel fancied herself a Wrap Artist. She could wrap or unwrap anything lickety split. That was until the advent of CD's and DVD's. Scissors, knives, nail files, nothing worked...it took longer to get the darn thing out of the packaging that to watch or listen to it. She broke her nails, wrecked her manicures and cut herself many times just to get at her new entertainment. With all those injuries, she used the soreandwrap theory and shamed her friends into opening the discs for her. Getting new stuff should be a Wrapsody, not a Wrapulsion or a Bum Wrap!

Etymology: Sore (causing misery or pain or distress;roused to anger)& Wrap (the covering (usually paper or cellophane) in which something is wrapped; to coil around) Word Play on Saran Wrap (plastic cling film)

Pronunciation: plas-toe-mas-o-chi-zel-ize

Sentence: Perhaps it was because she had found out there was no Santa Claus at the tender age of 14, but Gorzillia just loved opening presents she bought for herself. Being a lover of all things hi-tech and entertaining, a lot of the gifts to herself were secured in plastic which required patience as well as a chisel to open. She loved the process, even when it caused her to shed blood. What she didn't know, of course, was that the pleasure she derived from this adventure was called plastomasochiselization.

Etymology: From plastic, a synthetically produced molded material + masochism, a psychological disorder which produces pleasure from physical pain + chisel, a metal tool used to cut or shape
