Pronunciation: plad fad

Sentence: After the moviE, "Braveheart" came out, Mary's Scottish boss wore only kilts and tartans and encouraged those who wished to seek his favour to do the same. This plaidfad was a problem to Mary and others, who found it hard to find enough plaid gear to wear to work. One poor soul finally flipped out and was fired for refusing to dress the part. He returned the next day in tartans, wild hair and blue paint on his face yelling "Frrrreedom!" In one of life's ironies, Mr. Burns, the manager was let go himself the next week, when one of his female staffers complained to head office that she did not like the tilt of his kilt when he came near her!

Etymology: Plaid (Tartan;crisscross design on a fabric) & Fad (craze, trend;current interest followed with exaggerated zeal)

Sentence: A slave to fashion, I opted for the ultra conrol top panty hose which turned out to be the ultimate itsuckssory. The control top was so controlling that I ended up hiking it from my tender waist onto my ribs, which was comfortable for a while, but at the end of the night I ended up with a deep long-lasting bruise on my ribs. I mean I've heard of control top, but really! The communist party wasn't even this controlling!! (true story)
