Portmanteau words make me chortle!

Don't get 'hangry' at Christmas time. Have some mince pies! Dig out the mistetoe! (Originally 'mistle' and 'toe'.

Do you prefer 'brunching' or ' chillaxing' at Yuletide. Don't get influenza or 'affluenza'. I promise not to accuse you of 'mansplaining' if you share your portmanteau words!
