Carnundrum 

A nonsense word that was made up by a car leasing company so that they could use it in a radio spot and quote the definition that they, themselves, made up and entered into the Urban Dictionary. It is a word that, to date, has been used exactly one time by one person...the guy who did the commercial.
The "carnundrum" commercial on the radio is an insult to my intelligence
