If Mensa Can Do It, Why Can't We?

Recommended Posts

Here is the 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 supply a new definition.

 

1. Cashtration (v.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of time.

 

2. Ignoranus (n.): A person who's both stupid and an @$$hole.

 

3. Intaxication (n.): Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

 

4. Reintarnation (n.): 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.

9. Inoculatte (v.): To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.

 

10. Osteopornosis (n.): A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)
