The Dearest Man just sent me this forwarded e-mail this morning. I sent it on to some of my groups-lists, and Beth immediately e-mailed back, "Are you going to post these?"
Oh. Yeah. [d'uh! smacks head] Well, I guess I could do that... Obviously, the coffee isn't being ingested quickly enough!
So, here is is:
The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational once again asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing of one letter,and supply a new definition. Here are this year's {2005} winners:1. Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period.
2.Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an asshole. (<---- And here's a great new word for the looney leftists!)
3. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
4. Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly. (I'm looking at Ogre, Terry, and maybe Basil, here, LOL)
5. 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.
6. Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
7. Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.
8. Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.
9. Inoculatte: To take coffee intravenously when you are running late. (See? I haven't been properly inoculatte'd this morning!)
10. Hipatitis: Terminal coolness.
11. Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)
12. 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.
13. Decafalon (n.): The grueling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you.
14. Glibido: All talk and no action.
15. Dopeler effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.
16. Arachnoleptic fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you've accidentally walked through a spider web.
17. Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.
18. Caterpallor (n.): The color you turn after finding half a worm in the fruit you're eating.
Pretty fun, huh? So, there's your Monday morning laugh, courtesy of Mr.CatHouse Chat!
