ooshabosch
Alice was running late for work. She'd just gotten out of the shower, and was getting dressed in the bedroom when she was ooshaboshed. She was sitting on the edge of the bed, putting on her socks, when her boyfriend, still half asleep, leaned forward, wrapped his arms around her, and pulled her back into bed for several minutes of cuddles and kisses.

Franky was running through the living room on his birthday, playing with his new toy race car, when he became the victim of an ooshabosch from his grandmother. As he ran by, she grabbed his hand and pulled him in for flurry of unwanted smooches and hugs.

oorah
A motivational cry used by the United States Marine Corps. Sometimes also used as a general response to an order or question. Recon Marines in Korea (1953), traveling by submarine, often heard the dive klaxon which sounded like "Aarrugah." These Marines began using the word as a motivational tool, but it was too long and slowly became modified into what it is today. It was popularized during the 80s and 90s.
