Everlean
Created by: artr
Pronunciation: evərlēn
Sentence: Horace is no good at picking Christmas trees. No matter how good it looked in the lot, every tree he took home was an everlean. Somewhere between the tree lot and home the trunk would develop a bend. A few years ago he thought he could dupe the fates by buying an artificial tree. No such luck. Somehow it was damaged in transit and it too refused to stand upright.
Etymology: ever (at all times; always)+ lean (be in or move into a sloping position)
