Pronunciation: wee - spree - stings

Sentence: Everyone in Stan's family wanted a Wii game system. As he went from store to store trying to find them, he realized that they were in short supply and cost $250.00 each. After that, he found he needed to add controllers and games in order to make them "playable". He was laying out $500.00 for each person and putting extreme mileage on his car, not to mention the time he was spending. As he tried to stay in a festive mood, he started to sing Carols as he drove all over the city. One of his new favorites became "This Wiispreestings, all day in my car, buying gifts, I travel afar. Sears and Nordstom, Best Buy and Walmart followed by the nearest bar."

Etymology: Wii (Nintendo Wii, popular video game system) Spree (engage without restraint in an activity and indulge, as when shopping) Stings (cause sharp or stinging pains or discomfort)
