Sentence: I felt that I grew dumber as I fumbled with the CD case trying to open it. Within minutes, I found myself smashing the case against my head in a failed attempt to open it. It wasn't until I tried using scissors, and damaging the CD, that I had known I had been truely shrinkwrapped.

Etymology: Shrinkwrap (annoying plastic on CD case) + crap (term of frustration; as in "Crap! I can't get this stupid plastic off.")
