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. Here is the top ten.
Here are the winners:
1. Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of time.
2. Ignoranus: A person who’s both stupid and an asshole.
3. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
4. Reintarnation: 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.
6. Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
7. Giraffiti : Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.
8. Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn’t get it.
9. Inoculatte : To take coffee intravenously when you are running late.
10. Osteopornosis : A degenerate disease. (This one got extra credit.)
Ken, the truly amazing part is that if you figure in the money spent by the few folks who ran their own separate tab, the purchases and tips made before the tab began, and the 20-30 bones Adam laid on the guy for a tip before he left, we actually spent close to 600.
Kens, you were running a meth lab in a brownstone garden apartment? Or were you referring to something else?
Rob, that was my referral. If you ever buy a home, we’ll teach you the difference between vinyl siding and hardiplank. But yeah, some nice looking homes on that block.
Seriously, great to see everyone. Thanks for organizing, Kens (and Biff). Great location.
Hahah Kens – running a crystal meth lab out of your apt is dangerous, but apparently not as dangerous as a brothel!! (i don’t think everyone heard that story at the table – hilarious A. Incognito)
slopefarm, that’s the one I was referring to. It was a joke of course but since the guy/girl mentioned that it was a Russian guy, I couldn’t resist.
Snappy, you’re correct, we did spent more like 600 in there.
Kens runs a brothel?
So the steamer also works on thongs?

Snappy, I had no idea you actually snapped a picture of the bill but that’s pretty funny.
DH, look in the forum. Where do you think my knowledge of yesterday K discussion comes from? Someone totally snitched on me!!!!
