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 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.
Foreploy (v): 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.
Sarchasm (n): The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.
Inoculatte (v): To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.
Hipatitis (n): Terminal coolness.
Osteopornosis (n): A degenerate disease. (This one got extra
credit.)
Karmageddon (n): 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 (v): All talk and no action.
Dopeler effect (n): The tendency of stupid ideas to
seem smarter
when they come very quickly.
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 literature:
Ignoranus (n): A person who's both stupid and an
asshole.
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 (v): Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
