She turned to him and said, Ì know where you have been...13th floor, with Dr. Peckit, the renowned pscychology specialist on compulsive and addictive behaviours. To which Marco replied, Àre you psychic... How do you know that...`

Pronunciation: PROD+dOMINATE

Sentence: We kept at it, each having to be the last one to push, cycling faster and faster in a mad frenzy for prodomination, not really wanting it to end as we responded to each other almost in synch, until finally we both just stood there looking at each other, exhausted, far past the time the elevator reached our floor -- I think I am in love.

Pronunciation: buht'n-UHP-man-ship

Sentence: Bob wasn't a nice man; if he didn't get his own way, he would become pushy. Frequently he would be "pushing someones button," and if that didn't work he would "push their keys." Also he thought that he was a tough dude and joined "The Push," but they thought he was nothing more than a "push-fire" and a real "push-over." Even at lifts and traffic lights, he always tried his buttonupmanship, telling little old ladies to "button-up their lip." He had no success with the younger ladies also, when it came to "push-on-up." Seeking a free night's fun at someone else's expense, he thought he might push his luck with the ladies at a "pushing school" or a "buttonhole factory," but when it came to "push and shove," they stomped on his "button and bows" and told him to "push off" or he'd be "pushing clouds" sooner than he thought.

Etymology: BUTTON: n. any small knob or disk pressed to activate an electric circuit, release a spring, or otherwise operate or open a machine, small door, toy, etc. ONEUPMANSHIP n. the attitude or practice of trying to keep one step ahead of a friend or competitor;
