Pronunciation: ah bleuw shuns

Sentence: Oscar's manners were non-existant. He had no sense of appropriate behavior in the workplace. For him there was no border between the personal and the professional. As far as he was concerned his office and his home served the same function. Which is why his colleagues were disgusted to find him trimming his toenails at his desk. "How can you perform these ablewtions here everyday...have you no sense of pride?", said his co-worker, Felix. "And I hope you have not put your clippings in your coffee mug again!" said his other co-worker, Faith. "Don't worry", said Oscar, "I put them in your mug instead!" Ewwwwww!

Etymology: Ablutions (washing, cleansing, bathing, scrubbing one's self as a daily ritual) & Eww ( Slang expression of disgust or nausea...like yuck or ugh!)

Pronunciation: Clip + hibi + shun + ist

Sentence: Stan was a busy man indeed. He was a splendid public speaker who liked to share his inspirational insights and stories with others. What with his book tours and public speaking schedules, he barely had time to brush his teeth, eat or dress some days. Trouble was, he seemed oblivous to other's disgusted reactions as he openly groomed himself; snipping, clipping, plucking and brushing any part of himself that needed upkeep. What a time-saver, he thought. Stan never concerned himself with the fact that he had turned into a notorious cliphibitionist.

Etymology: "Clip" as to clip a toenail, hair or moustache + "exhibitionist" - a flaunter, flasher or pervert
