* Koodo Mobile's newest ad campaign centers around made-up words of varying levels of cromulence, such as "Thumbactionist", "Tabrific", "Bigbillification", and other things that sound like they came out of an ad campaign in [[Nineteen Eighty-Four|1984]].
** A few years ago{{when}}, a car ad in the UK was very similar, but exclusively picked two (often opposed) words, and mashed them together- "Sporty" and "Safe" became "Spafe", for instance. [[Top Gear|Richard Hammond]] deemed this to be a load of [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|shiny and bright]].
* A recent{{when}} [[Green Lantern (film)|Green Lantern]] themed cell phone commercial describes its internet surfing as "faster-er."
