Pronunciation: STOOP-ih-max-ih-faction

Pure snow slightly muffled the sound of silver sleighbells and cash registers, but gladdened the heart of the old ex-skinflint deep within him. Barely pausing for his boots and top hat, Ebinezer could not wait to immerse himself in this STUPEMAXIFACTION which seemed to fill everyone with the profound joy of giving which had eluded him for so long. Now if only that 48 inch plasma HDTV was still in the shop window.....Ho Ho HO !

Pronunciation: oh holee nite

Sentence: Oweholynight! The stores are brightly shining, It is the night of getting your money's worth, Long lay those cards in purse and pocket pining, Tills reappear and the soul spent its worth. A thrill of hope the retail world rejoices, For yonder breaks your budget by Mastercard. Fall on your knees! Owe, hear the Visa voices! Owenight divine, Owenight when AmEx was reborn; Owenight divine, Owenight, Owenight Divine.

Etymology: Owe (be in debt, owe money for goods bought) & O Holy Night (Christmas Eve, the night of Jesus' birth, the reason we celebrate Christmas; the title of a Carol announcing the birth of the Savior)

Pronunciation: ob lih GIF shun

Sentence: I love that feeling of obligiftion that holidays and birthdays engender. (Not.)

Etymology: obligation + gift
