new words.....

ok, so this post was cut/pasted from an email sent by my workaholic brother that i hear from so rarely.......

New Words

The Washington Post's Style Invitational once again
asked readers to take any word from the dictionary,
alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one
letter, and supply a new definition. Here are this
year's (2003) winners.

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.

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.

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.

Decafalon (n.): The grueling 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 three 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 bunch ----

Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an asshole
