[JensenPark]

Here are some winners of this year’s Washington Post’s

Mensa Invitational which once again asked readers to

take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding,

subtracting, or changing one letter, and supplying a new

definition:

1. Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which

renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite

period of time.

2. Ignoranus: A person who is both stupid and an

asshole.

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.

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.

10. Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got

extra credit.)

11. 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.
