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 winners:

Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts
until you realize it was your money to start with.

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: 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.

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, like, sending off
all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth
explodes and it's like, a totally serious bummer.

Decaflon: (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 3 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.

Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an a***hole.
