New Additions to the English Language

Each year the Washington Post's Style Invitational asks readers
to
take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or
changing one letter and supply a new definition. Here are the 2001
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.

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.

Those are great!!!
