Diflirticate

Created by: Bulletchewer

Pronunciation: dy-flur-ti-kate

Sentence: She used her new boots to diflirticate from the shortness of that killer skirt.

Etymology: From "divert", "flirt" and the "icate" bit is for the connotations of "selfish, catty person" (i-cat yes, pretentious, I know). Plus "-icate" is a great suffix for such a compelling verb.
