Overlappinglish Partwo
See here for the original Overlappinglish charter. Unfortunately the third entry below does not quite follow the rules. I will call it Overlappinglish slang.
Abundance + dancer = abundancer: one who dances abundantly.
Mousetrap + trapezoid = mousetrapezoid: a trapezoid with a mousy shape.
Liquidity + idiot = liquidiot: one who keeps all their savings in cash instead of buying into high-yield investments. As in, "Don't be a liquidiot."
Clobber + bury = clobbury: murder by clobbering, followed by burial to cover up the evidence.
Nostril + trilogy = nostrilogy: the study of nostrils.
Woodchuck + chuckle = woodchuckle: the laugh of a woodchuck.

how does Mousetrapezoid follow the rules of overlappinglish?
until you show me a high yield investment, I will be a liquidiot.
What's the "tri" in "nostrilogy" stand for? The study of people who have three nostrils? :)
Don't you mean "one with buns who dances"?
And hey, isn't Greg Mankiw your wool-scarf friend? He was on tonight's Fresh Air.

Don't you mean "mousetrap + trapezoid"?
And the definition for abundancer should be someone who wiggles their buns excessively while dancing.
Nostrilogy ought to be a series of mystery books about hound dogs.

How about: clobberate--(1)clobber with words;(2) severely berate. (Actually sort of a redundancy of both words). "I hope you're never clobberated for expressing your honest opinions"

I sit corrected on the mousetrapezoid.
I thought you meant to say "mousetrap" and "trapezoid"...maybe a mousetrap in the shape of a trapezoid?

Lipstickler: (1)girl's wearing lipstick, guy's got facial hair--the kiss.(2)She insists on the proper shade.
Oh, please stop me! It's late. I'm working at nightimeliness.

But Freakwenter, you mustn't sit on it like that, all corrected. You want to get your buns pinched bad?
