Sentence: Ellen was completely oblivious that her vanityflair caused others to stare in disgust and amazement. She simply assumed everyone loved looking at her when, in fact, they couldn't look away as she trimmed her toenails and plucked nose hairs regardless of social conventions.

Etymology: She's so vain. I'll bet she thinks this moment is about her.

I like your word! The onomatopoeia of the 'cisscisssorise' of it is awesome! The play on those two words is very clever. I think you could give this word a few more daffynitions ... than the one it was made up for ... or the one you gave ... like: cutting off the narcissist before he made you gag on his ego! - silveryaspen, 2007-12-13: 15:10:00

Pronunciation: skan-key-clip-per

Sentence: Natalie was a true skankeeclipper and got in the habit of tearing off her fingernails while driving. She would open the window an inch and try to push them out, but all too often they would fall back inside and land on the door edge or scatter across the floor mats. And Tom, though he loved Natalie a lot, loved his car even more. He dumped the skankeeclipper for a woman with OCD and fake nails.

Etymology: Yankee clipper altered to incorporate skanky--highly offensive; arousing aversion or disgust;
