I am a mouse potato

I can't C!

The Merriam-Webster website has a list of some new words that have been added to the 2006 Collegiate Dictionary. They include: aquascape, agritourism, supersize, labelmate, gastro bypass, unibrow and mouse potato (new to me). I tried creating a paragraph with as many "new" words as possible. This is the best I could do today:

I just went to the big-box store to get some manga DVDs and cocqui food when I ran into that mouse potato watching kids do ollies in the parking lot. I never noticed, but the dude has a supersize unibrow and it has grown so big it's now connected to his soul patch. I said hello, but then his cell went off with the latest Timberlake ringtone and he was off in his biodiesel car. One of the kids was that drama queen we met at the wave pool and suddenly, she started crying about avian influenza and said she needed a gastric bypass. The girl needs to chill out and go on an agritourism adventure, see some aquascapes and try some qigong.
