Pronunciation: /ˈfɪləˌstɪŋk/

Etymology: From philistine (a person who is lacking in or smugly indifferent to cultural values, intellectual pursuits, aesthetic refinement, etc.) + stink (a strong, offensive smell)

I'm not actually sure how many people are familiar with the word "philistine," and it's just not as funny if you have to look up the definition. - ErWenn, 2007-10-02: 01:40:00

Pronunciation: poop/yoo/lare/ity

Sentence: Norman thought it was a good thing when the boss told him he could join the crew on their rooftop lunch area. It had a great view, fresh air, and all the hot ladies seemed to be up there about noon. He had no idea it had nothing to do with his personality, but instead, everything to do with his poopularity. Everyone was convinced he not only ran in the park across the street daily, but that he also rolled around on the grass like dogs do when they find a scent they want to wear.

Etymology: poop (P.U.) popularity
