Sentence: Nerdia had never recovered from the wifight brought on inexorably by the constant aggravations of trying to connect her laptop to wireless networks at conference venues. After forking out exorbitant per hour rates for access, she frequently found that wireless coverage in the auditorium was flaky or only in the far left corner. Despite these tribulations she could never forgo her online fix.
Etymology: wifi + fight
