illiterature

(n.)
A piece of classic or contemporary literature that is exceedingly and painfully dull, boring, inane, banal, and unreadable.

Illiterature is usually not read on one's own accord. Teachers usually assign illiterature to students in times of rest such as spring break. Man students fail their English classes due to this unreadable material.

"Tess of the D'Urbervilles is an excelent example of classic British illiterature."

"The illiterature that my English teacher assigned us to read is simply too dull to read for more than five minutes at a time."

Nutshot

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.

Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.
