Voted For: Parishiltality

Pronunciation: spon-FOO-lee

Sentence: Bob could think of, and talk about, nothing other than money. He kneaded the "dough", chased the "buck" and laundered the filthy lucre. But by-and-by this singleminded sponfoolie finished up a kinless and kithless crock, without enough "moolah" to buy a muesli bar.

Etymology: Blending based on "spondulie" and "spondulicks". A slang term(s)possibly from Gk "spondulicks", the adjectival form of "spondulox", a type of shell used as early "money" and fool.

Great word, I've thought of it, too, a few months ago and as Erin McKean told me in her TechTalk video, that I ought to tell the other inventors about this mysterious mental connection, I googled this page, so greetings from Germany. (I think we also feel contemptation then drinking contemptatious alcoholic stuff, or when smoking, though I don't.) http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7548057564471419291 - entryfee, 2007-11-03: 19:35:00
