Giftskinning
Top verboticism of the day created by OZZIEBOB
Pronunciation: gift-SKIN-ning
Sentence: Although Bob couldn't resist using his skills as a taxidermist when unwrapping presents; more often than not, despite his painstaking peelings, his giftskinning ended in a wrapsidermical stuff-up. And many a time on Christmas day a wrapclamation catastrophe found him in deep depression, suffering from another bout of the yuleskinner blues.
Etymology: Gift: a present & Skinning: remove outer layer or epidermis; fig to remove covering.
