1. AQUADEXTROUS – Should be ‘Aqua-TOE-strous’. I can’t turn the water on but I can unplug the tub with mine. With both left AND right foot. Guess that makes me ‘Aqua-ambi-Toe-strous’.

 

2. CARPERPETUATION – Yep, after you pick up the string you don’t know where to put it. You’d have to stop vacuuming, put it in the upright position, walk to the kitchen and throw it in the trash. Giving the vacuum one more chance makes sense. But only if you use the hose attachment.

 

3. DISCONFECT – Well duh, everyone knows you can blow cooties away!

 

4. ELBONICS – The trick is to hurry up and sit down first, mark your territory with your elbows and DO NOT MOVE… for 2 ½ hours. Chance eating a vat of popcorn and drinking a kegger of cola will risk losing your place. Forever.

 

5. FRUST – Frusting requires too much effort. Let the cute little dust bunnies run free like the wind!

 

6. LACTOMANGULATION – Yes, I’m a guilty felon of this illegal maneuver too along with tearing off tags ‘under the penalty of law.’

 

7. PEPPIER – I don’t have a problem with them. That may be a result of my limited fine dining experiences though. I do get annoyed at the ‘Pour-piers’. Every 3 minutes they interrupt the flow of conversation trying to refill me. It really throws us with ADD off.

 

8. PHONESIA – It happens. Nuff said.

 

9. PUPKUS – These are vital on patio doors. I don't know how many times I've saved myself from running into a closed door thanks to the pupkus.

 

10. TELECRASTINATION – I cannot pick up the phone on the first ring! I fear it makes me look desperate like I was just sitting by the phone waiting for you to call.

 

I have issues.
