Question: What did the bucking racehorse say to the jockey?
<br />
<br />
And this:
<br />
Subject: FW: It's all in how you spell it...
<br />
<br />
Each year the Washington Post's Style Invitational asks readers to
<br />
take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or
<br />
changing one letter and supplying a new definition. Here are the 2001 winners:
<br />
<br />
Intaxication: - Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
<br />
<br />
Reintarnation: - Coming back to life as a hillbilly.
<br />
<br />
Foreploy: - Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
<br />
<br />
Giraffiti: - Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.
<br />
<br />
Sarchasm: - The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.
<br />
<br />
Inoculatte: - To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.
<br />
<br />
Hipatitis: - Terminal coolness
<br />
<br />
Osteopornosis: - A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit)
<br />
<br />
Glibido: - All talk and no action.
<br />
<br />
Dopeler Effect: - The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when you have been smoking marijuana.
<br />
<br />
And, the pick of the literature:
<br />
<br />
Ignoranus: - A person who's both stupid and an asshole.
<br />
<br />
This last one seems the most widely useful.
