Verbotic Art

As if we didn't have enough words already! Over at Verbotomy, you can create your own.
The site posts a situation or action in need of a word to describe it and readers are invited to post their ideas, which are then voted on by others.

Here's an example:
DEFINITION: To be physically overcome by a sudden illness, disability, or even death when asked to participate in unrewarding activities -- like work, or household chores.
And some suggested words are:

Shirkolepsy
Workumvent
Workolepsy
Taskphyxiate
Slackout
Narcolazia
Vigormortis
Shwirk
Illude
Schlubbed
Workalepsy
Chordom
Skiveitis
Dutiphobia
Choraphobia


Check it out. It looks like fun.
