 | AndrewScott (71) 09/29/2005 | LOVE this word. Though commercial spam is the most "e-nnoying", corny forwards by out-of-control relatives can get almost as tired. Pop-ups definitely deserve the "e-nnoying" label as well.

 | earthbound (37) 09/11/2005 | This word popped into existence so naturally for me, that I would be surprised if nobody else has thought of it.
A year or two ago, I was sitting at home in front of a computer, arms folded as I waited for my email to download.
One, two three emailed movie clips of animal home videos and suchlike came through in painfully slow but steady progression from a well-meaning colleague and I was becoming increasingly frustrated, as I had just wanted to quickly check my email.
In the background, I heard my daughter complaining that her brother was reeely ennoying her (that's how she pronounced annoying).
I looked back at the progress bar on the computer screen, something clicked, and a word was born.

 | kamylienne (77) 09/11/2005 | Love this one. Would have been more useful back in high school/college days, when my mailbox would be FLOODED with those ten-billion question surveys that are fun for, oh, about the first half an hour, but get tiring when it gets to question number 259. I like e-mails with pictures and the like, but I prefer when they come with personal correspondence as well.
