Dictionary Definitions
To try and lighten the mood after my previous post, I'm not sure they all fit the criteria though...
The Washington Post’s Mensa Invitational asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supplying a new definition.
Here are the winners:-
1 Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realise it was your money to start with.
2. Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly
3. Bozone : The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas penetrating. The bozone layer shows little signs of breaking down in the near future
4. Foreploy : Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
5. Cashtration : The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period
6. Giraffiti : Vandalism spray painted very, very high
7. Sarchasm : The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn’t get it
8. Inoculatte : To take coffee intravenously when you are running late
9. Hipatitis : Terminal coolness
10 Osteopornosis : A degenerate’s disease
11. Karmageddon : It’s like, when everybody is sending off these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes.
12. Decafalon : The gruelling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you
13. Glibido : All talk and no action
14 Dopeler Effect : The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly
15. Arachnoleptic Fit : The frantic dance performed just after you’ve accidentally walked through a spider web
16. Beelzebug : Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out
