Sentence: "I only have mechaneyes for you," Carson crooned softly, as he stroked the side of his '78 Buick Century. "Those sleek new snazzy cars have nothing on you. They have but a shadow of your beauty and grace." His car was like an old friend to him. When people asked if he was getting a new car anytime soon, he would snap, "Would you trade in a friend of 32 years for someone you had just met?" Behind his back, people would say that if they had a friend of 32 years that smelled as bad as Carson's car did, they probably WOULD get rid of that friend.

Etymology: mechanize + eyes

Sentence: Maria loved Rotwang and the little fixer-upper they shared on the prairie. In an effort to better herself, Maria took an online course in Animal Husbandry and obtained a government grant to develop a slow chipmunk through selective breeding. Rotwang's contribution to domestic bliss was the maniacal disassembly, upgrading and fine-tuning of every mechanical device they owned. Mysterious packages arrived every day, and Rotwang would spirit them into the basement where, to a chorus of clangs, whirrrs and curses, he would assemble the parts into idolatrous animated devices. Rotwang had converted every appliance in the house into a sort of lamp, and when he started locking himself in for days at a time, Maria knew that he had fallen victim to the curse of GIZMOPOMORPHISM...When Maria tried to show Rotwang the fruits of her labor, a really slow stud rodent named Jacques, he callously smacked it from her hands and sent it flying into the anteroom like a little furry meteorite. Weeping profusely, Maria made Rotwang build a quonset hut in the backyard where he lived alone with all his infernal contraptions. When Rotwang finally emerged for a pastrami on rye with mustard, he found that Maria had packed up her beloved chipmunks and moved to L.A. where she joined the Church of Appliantology, met a surfer dude and opened a new-age pet shop out near Hubcap Heaven on the Antelope Freeway. Rotwang was last seen talking incoherently to a mutant shop vac as they dragged him off to Chunga's Home for the Mechanically Insane. The End :)

Etymology: GIZMO+anthroPOMORPHISM=GIZMOPOMORPHISM.....GIZMO: an often small mechanical or electronic device with a practical use but often thought of as a novelty;origin occluded...ANTHROPOMORPHISM: ascribing human characteristics to nonhuman things,a core dogma of appliantology; Late Latin anthropomorphus of human form, from Greek anthrōpomorphos, from anthrōp- + -morphos -morphous.

Pronunciation: spin fat you eh shun

Sentence: Carl loved his car, in fact you could say he had a bad case of spinfatuation. His favourite book and movie had been Stephen King's "Christine", so when he first took her out for a spin (or as he called it, on their first date), he named her Christine. His spinfatuation was automatic and he spent many hours learning auto repair, because he did not want all those grease monkeys down at the local garage touching her sleek chassis, never mind looking under her hood. His time alone with her in the garage soon became a fixation. His mother was worried, but found it hard to torque to him about it. She tried to steer him towards other activities (or even appliances), but he refused to shift and always yelled back at her, until she was exhausted. Her concerns were further fueled by his talking about marrying Christine. She argued that this love was not the wheel thing and their age differential was too great. His mother almost had a hemi one day when she discovered that Carl had left a note saying that he and Christine had eloped. The next day, Carl walked home, leaking eye fluids, without the lovely Christine. His mother saw that he was ready to blow a gasket and asked him what happened. Carl broke down and said "I have made a complete axle of myself on my wedding night!" He told her that he had found out when she had made a transmission, that Christine had had some "work" done on her before they met, she was really a convertible... she used to be known as Christopher! She became the little engine that couldn't. Carl lost all his inhibitors and committed battery first and then vehicular homicide. He had come home to look for his cables...the jumpers. We knew it would all end in gears...Oh, the heart brake!

Etymology: spin (a drive in a car;twist and turn so as to give an intended interpretation;or make up a story) & infatuation (foolish and usually extravagant passion or love or admiration)

Pronunciation: mō'tər-rŏt'ĭ-sĭz'əm

Sentence: He was attracted, and she knew it. He telegraphed his arousal with every breath. But she played it cool; he might as well not have existed, as far as she was concerned. Of course, that made her all the more desirable. She stood there, in all her gleaming glory, and idled, her vortec V-6 rumbling, her flanks gleaming, her two-speed transfer case and four-wheel-drive tranny lying idle. "A hundred thirty k's quite a few miles," he muttered, trying to disguise the motoroticism reeking from his pores, then offered twelve hundred fifty for the '92 S10 Blazer.

Etymology: moto, middle Norse, "diminuative snapshot structure;" rot, bef. 900; (v.) ME rot(t)en, OE rotian, c. Fris rotsje, D rotten; (n.) ME, perh. < ON rot (perh. partly deriv. of the v.), "aroma of that which eminates from Denmark;" I, the nominative singular pronoun; cism, derivative of 'sizzle,' from early N. V. Peale, that which is sold in lieu of, and is percieved as preferrable to, the steak.
