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. 
Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid. 
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. 
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. 
Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an asshole. 
Have a great Friday!!
