The Washington Post's Style invitational asked readers to take any word rom the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one
letter, and supply a new definition.? Here are some recent winners:
Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.
Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright
ideas from penetrating.? The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows little
sign of breaking down in the near future.
Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of
getting laid.
Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject
financially impotent for an indefinite period.
Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.
Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person
who doesn't get it.
Inoculatte: To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.
Hipatitis: Terminal coolness.
Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)
Karmageddon: It's like, when everybody is sending off all these really
bad vibes, right?? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's like, a
serious bummer.
Decaflon (n.): The gruelling event of getting through the day consuming
only things that? are good for you.
Glibido: All talk and no action.
Dopeler effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.
Arachnoleptic fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you've
accidentally walked through a spider web.
Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito that gets into your
bedroom at 3 in the morning and cannot be cast out.
Caterpallor (n.): The color you turn after finding half a grub in the fruit you're eating.
And the pick of the literature:
Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an a--hole.
Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who dont.
