The Washington Post's Style Invitational 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 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.

Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the
purpose of getting
laid.

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.

Glibido: All talk and no action.

Dopeler effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem
smarter when they come
at you rapidly.

And, the pick of the literature:

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