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:

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

[b]Reintarnation[/b]: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.

[b]Foreploy[/b]: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.

[b]Giraffiti[/b]: Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.

[b]Sarchasm[/b]: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.

[b]Inoculatte[/b]: To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.

[b]Hipatitis[/b]: Terminal coolness.

[b]Osteopornosis[/b]: A degenerate disease. (this one got extra  credit)

[b]Karmageddon[/b]: 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.

[b]Glibido[/b]: All talk and no action.

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

And, the pick of the literature:

[b]Ignoranus[/b]: A person who's both stupid and an ass
