Pronunciation: bawl der dash

Sentence: It was always a Risk to invite Bawlthazar the Bawlderdash to our weekly Games Night. He liked to have a Monopoly on winning but did not use his Cranium. His thoughts were so Scrabbled and so Scattergoried that he did not have a Clue how to play most games. And yet he would bawl when he lost. We started having secret Games Nights. I know, it was a Trivial Pursuit of some fun, but if The Bawlderdash got wind of our plans, we would be Sorry. Somedays we wanted to sink his Yahtzee with our Battleship. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose...I guess that's just the Game of Life!

Etymology: Balderdash (a popular board game of trivia and bluffing, where players bluff meanings of obscure words to win points, Balderdash is also defined as trivial nonsense) & Bawl (cry loudly;shout loudly and without restraint;make a raucous noise)
