  • lymph: to walk with a lisp.
  • esplanade: to attempt an explanation while drunk.
  • coffee: a person who's coughed on.
  • rectitude: the dignified demeanor assumed by a proctologist

new words and definitions
this contest makes the internet rounds as "washington post's mensa invitational", yet it is fictional. the objective is to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition.

  • cashtration (n.): the act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period.
  • ignoranus: a person who's both stupid and an asshole.

  • reintarnation: coming back to life as a hillbilly.

  • 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.
  • decafalon (n.): the grueling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you.
  • glibido: all talk and no action.
