Created by: artr
Pronunciation: rērəneθōgər
Sentence: Having spent their entire weekend watching 4 full seasons of My Name Is Earl, Bob and Bill feel like they have been attacked by the rerunnethogre. They have somehow absorbed components of the characters from the show into their personalities. Despite their suburban upbringing, they feel as if they live in a trailer park and drive an old beater. Last time they did something like this it took Bob almost a week to stop limping after watching just one season of House. DAMN YOU, NETFLIX!
Etymology: rerun (a program, event, or competition that occurs or is run again) + ogre (a man-eating giant) runneth over [from the Bible: My cup runneth over (having more than enough of something)]
