The one portmanteaux name that I like is Foreteen, for Foreman/Thirteen on House.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I can't help but approve of the portmanteau for Pepper Potts and Tony Stark, which is Pepperony.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Pepperony
Okay, that one made me snort beer.

I'm still fond of Spike/Fred. (Spred.)
I mean, that one cracked me up enough that I made it an archive.

Always Anti-fascist!
Ok, Fay...if that's true, you're funny. Fandom being what it is though, I never am sure what's serious. Pumpkin pie kind of puzzles me too, actually. Though I've tried a few times, trying to be a loyal American and etc. Still would rather have cheesecake and cherries or something.

I want to start a band and name it this. We'll do covers of Toad the Wet Sprocket songs remixed as Sousa marches.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Are they all puns or some such? I'm still not getting "Pumpkin Pie". I don't get "Guns and Handcuffs" either unless it's because that's the only way that pairing would actually happen.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
There is nothing to get, afaik. There is no cunning wordplay. It's just a phrase that's supposed to be a codeword for a given pairing. I think that some of them derive from specific fics, from what the Wikipedia said, but no, I don't think there's a particular schemata in action.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
It is sort of like Roswell, I think, which took me forever to understand. And probably for similar reasons-- because they both have a lot of characters with names starting with the same letter. Harry, Hermione. Ron, Remus. Sirius, Snape. Michael, Maria, Max
