big words from tiny heads

I was talking with a friend, and the subject of "big words" came up. He had never heard of antidisestablishmentarianism ... for a long time it was the longest english word in the dictionary. Not counting self-propagating chemical names.

In a funny bout of tongue-twisters and bad etymology, we came up with these totally useless phrases:

Antiaccomplishmentdisciplinarian -
One of those parents who will smack their kids if they do anything out of the ordinary

Antiestonianditzplanetarium -
A place where anyone who's not from Estonia can go and watch an airhead talk about stars

And my favorite:
Antiestablishmentdiscoplanarian -
A little flatworm who hates to be told what to do, he just wants to dance.
