Each year the Washington Post's Style Invitational asks readers to take
any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or
changing only one letter and supply a new definition.

Here are the 2002 top entries:

\begin{description}
	\item[Intaxication]
		Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you
		realize it was your money to start with.

	\item[Foreploy]
		Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of
		getting laid.

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

	\item[Hipatitis]
		Terminal coolness.

	\item[Osteopornosis]
		A degenerate disease.

	\item[Glibido]
		All talk and no action.
\end{description}

And the winner of the Washington Post's Style Invitational:

\begin{description}
	\item[Ignoranus]
		A person who's both stupid \emph{and} an asshole.
\end{description}
