This is a question Driven to Madness

Captain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

Anyone who adds ‘amundo or ‘aloid’ to a name in an effort to seem zany/cool
Example: “Hey Bobamundo! How’s it going?”

Or, to tie in a few of our collective gripes:

“I was at this kerrazee parday with my pal Jackaloid the other night. I got so krunked, it was amaze-balls.”

Yes.
Legally speaking, you're obliged to kill such people.

These are all transient
linguistic fashions.

Shortening the adjective to the base verb and adding 'balls' to it is a current idiomatic trend.

'mundo' is not current. It is unlikely that the two would be used together, unless you are a member of a Linux users group.

That's as may be.
You're still legally obliged to kill such people.

With reference to said killing method
Perhaps a Concise Oxford Dictionary shoved width-ways up their gonga?

Why? The Oxford Press produces descriptive dictionaries.
If lots of people start saying amazeballs, they'll put it in there. This isn't fucking France, you know.

I must be living in a pocket of relative sanity.
