This made me laugh. It’s from the July 1^st edi­tion of “The One-Page Mag­a­zine” in The New York Times Magazine:

Stop­u­late: To inter­rupt an inti­mate moment to declare terms. “June tear­fully stop­u­lated to Alex that, what­ever hap­pened, she could never move back to Cleve­land.” See also: Turn-oaf (the act of falling asleep imme­di­ately after inti­macy; or the per­son who does.)
