A few new words

English is a dynamic language where words are many times altered & adapted to create clearer meanings in context. With this in mind:
  
* Instead of the category “other”, does the Pentagon use MISSILEANEOUS?
   
* Is the process of growing grass for cows called PASTUREIZATION?
   
* Is the habit of giving your word to others but never keeping it called PROMISECUITY?
   
* Is a system under which nothing ever gets better called FUTILEISM?
   
* Is the fan mail that backup singers get called CHORUSPONDENCE?
   
* Are organically grown herbal medicines called FARMACEUTICALS?
   
* Was the age when pork & mutton pretty much all you ate called MEATIEVAL?
   
* Is having a sweet tooth that kind of sneaks up on you called SYRUPTITIOUS?
   
* If one is contemptuous of rubdowns given by women, is one MASSAGEYNISTIC?
   
* Are crossword puzzle events that benefit charities called FILLINTHROPIC?
