Lee's Funnies

 

The "Washington Post" sponsored a Style Invitational, asking 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:

Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the reader
who doesn't get it.

Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.

Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very high.

Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of
obtaining sex.

Inoculatte: To take coffee intravenously.

Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease.

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.

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

Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an asshole.
