Pronunciation: dee-mon-stra-ted

Sentence: Marla became more and more daemonstrated by the bounced emails in her inbox. Every one of them said Mailer-daemon@hercompany.com. She wondered if she should contact a priest to exorcise the mysterious, evil entity in her computer who foiled her attempts to contact the cute guy in shipping.

Etymology: daemon: a mail server program that runs in the background; maildaemon@___.com is the message one gets when an email is bounced for some reason such as an incorrect address or a domain is on a blacklist(term comes from Greek Mythology meaning a Guardian Spirit) + frustrated: having one's plans foiled + demonstrated: incapable of being disputed
