Farcefeed

Created by: Tigger

Pronunciation: /FAHRS-feed/

Sentence: As a travelling PC Technician, Dominic often had a captive audience when he worked on people's home computers. Few people would walk away when he was working on their PC's, either because they were trying to learn or because they were afraid he'd do something to mess it up. So, while he was working, he would farcefeed them jokes. They sometimes laughed too, although it was usually a nervous kind of laugh. A lot of people didn't get his jokes, but still, a laugh was a laugh. Dominic wanted to be a standup comedian one day.

Etymology: Blend of: Farce - A ludicrous comedy; a mockery (from Old French, farcir "to stuff" as in 'a short comic sketch in between the acts of a play') + Forcefeed - to physically compel one to take food (from Latin, fortis "strong" & Old English, foda "to tend")
