awwwwwww-itude

noun. Cuteness on a level heretofore unimagined; an abundance of cutesiness that can hardly be comprehended. Warning: May involve a cuteaggedon.

Real citation: “Also, the two younger kids, played by alien-like child actors Spencer and Abigail Breslin, are sitcom kids, supplying tart rejoinders and awwwwwww-itude respectively (older sister, played by Hayden Panettiere, isn't much better, but at least her character's grounded in some level of reality).”

Made-up citation: "When Lucy the 4-pound min pin puppy tried repeatedly (and failed repeatedly) to grab a tennis ball with her mouth, the sheer awwwwwww-itude left onlookers with brain-melting cutegasms of joy."
